Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar Disorder D E P A R T M E N T O F H E A L T H A N D H U M A N S E R V I C E S P U B L I C H E A L T H S E R V I C E N A T I O N A L I N S T I T U T E S O F H E A L T H National Institute of Mental Health ipolar disorder, also known as manic- depressive illness, is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in a person�s mood, energy, and ability to function. Different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through, the symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe. They can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even suicide. But there is good news: bipolar disorder can be treated, and people with this illness can lead full and productive lives. More than 2 million American adults,1 or about 1 percent of the population age 18 and older in any given year,2 have bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder typically develops in late adolescence or early adulthood. However, some people have their first symptoms during childhood, and some develop them late in life. It is often not recognized as an illness, and people may suffer for years before it is properly diagnosed and treated. Like diabetes or heart disease, bipolar disorder is a long-term illness that must be carefully managed throughout a person�s life. -

Kay Redfield Jamison
The Rhoda and Bernard Sarnat International Prize in Mental Health 2015 Honoree Kay Redfield Jamison, PhD Dalio Family Professor in Mood Disorders and Professor of Psychiatry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Co-Director, Johns Hopkins Mood Disorders Center The 2015 Rhoda and Bernard Sarnat International Prize in Mental Health is awarded to Kay Jamison for her profound insights into affective disorders and suicide that have not only advanced the field, but also transformed public understanding. Her work combines cutting-edge research with deeply humanistic and often personal narratives—an approach that has cut through stigma to become a cornerstone of the field and a beacon for sufferers of mood disorders. Dr. Jamison is the co-author of Manic-Depressive Illness, the standard medical textbook in the field, and has written more than 125 scientific and clinical articles about mood disorders, suicide, creativity, and lithium. However, her greatest impact may lie in her works of narrative nonfiction, which probe links between creativity and mental illness, trace the natural history of affective disorders, and explore the suicidal mind. An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness, which chronicles Dr. Jamison’s own experience with manic-depressive illness, marked a major milestone in combating stigma in the psychiatric profession. It remained on the New York Times best-seller list for 5 months and has been translated into 25 languages. Johns Hopkins Hospital, where Dr. Jamison co-directs the Mood Disorders Center, praises the book on its website as a kind of “bibliotherapy” that does “what pills can’t: It lets patients read for themselves how destructive not taking their medicine can be, it tells of the healing power of structure, psychotherapy and a social network. -
A Nation of Maniacs: Understanding Commodified Mania Through Bipolar Narratives Alexandra Marino
orienting / 1 A Nation of Maniacs: Understanding Commodified Mania Through Bipolar Narratives Alexandra Marino Excerpt “How could one, should one, recapture that intensity…the glorious moods of dancing all night and into the morning, the gliding through starfields and dancing along the rings of Saturn, the zany manic enthusiasms? How can one ever bring back the long summer days of passion, the remembrance of lilacs, ecstasy, and gin fizzes that spilled down over a garden wall, and the peals of riotous laughter that lasted until the sun came up or the police arrived?” — Jamison, 211 This quote epitomizes the conflicted feelings Dr. Kay Redfield Jamison has towards her exhilarating and transcendental manic episodes. In her autobiography An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness, Jamison chronicles her battle with the cyclical highs and lows of bipolar disorder, a disease that for her is simultaneously lethal and life-affirming. Her manic highs are characterized by hypersexuality, fluidity of ideas, exuberance, extreme confidence, and hyperactivity (128). In contrast, when she cycles into depression after a manic episode, a desolate fog encapsulates her mind, bringing thoughts of suicide (39). Even as a professor of psychiatry who understands firsthand the ramifications of depression, she battles against taking the very same medications she urges her own patients to take. She fears that these mood stabilizers would eradicate the sweeping majesty of her mania, as depicted above (92). After years of resisting consistent treatment, she finally decides to stay on her medication, realizing that a life with less dramatic fluctuations in moods is preferable over no life at all. -

The Atlas comes with an interactive companion online atlas, the World Bank e-Atlas of Global Developmentthat allows users to customise maps and graph statistical series. So the next time you hear a student say, "I like it just the way it is!" they'll be referring to a final draft. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work. All of these later categorizations did not apply at the time and consequently, a very partial view is achieved. Its global coverage, through the use of international case studies, fosters a cross-fertilisation of ideas and initiatives. If you're on the fence about the Amazon Echo, read through this book and you will discover the answers you seek. It includes case studies exemplifying successes from the two year pilot and the national roll out of the programme, and tips for not only setting it up in your school but also sustaining it. All necessary background concepts - such as continuity, compactness, degree of a map, and so on - are explained, making the book accessible even to students at the high school level. -
