How to go about getting support and help

The Best people to have as support our your family and friends. Your family is probably the most obvious to have as support but a friend can also be just as important. When you have a friend that you trust, you will be able to confide in them whenever a problem may arise. After building trust with your friend you will feel comfortable in sharing concerns and problems with each other. This is truly a special bond a person with Bipolar Disorder can develop and it can go a long way on your road to recovery.
When it comes to getting help, people with Bipolar Disorder are sometimes embarrassed to admit that they have a mental illness. But anyone who has Bipolar Disorder should know that you are not alone and that help is out there whether it's within your community or your local clinic or hospital help is surely out there. Another option for people with Bipolar Disorder and other mental disorders to seek out help is by going online and looking for your local chapters of Bipolar Depression Support Alliance to find out all they have to offer.
