February 2012 marks our fourth annual Bipolar Disorder Awareness Month. As always, I will be accepting guest posts from anyone who has been affected by bipolar disorder. I’m looking for personal experiences, insight on the disorder, new medical findings – anything related to bipolar disorder.
As many of you know, our host disappeared overnight without warning a few months ago and I had to rebuild the site. Some of it was lost, and cann0t be recovered. I worked tirelessly to bring as much as possible back online as a testament to my dedication to helping others cope and to help educate the public. Your support during Bipolar Disorder Awareness Month means a great deal, and I am hoping to see a lot of submissions. You can send them to me by using the contact form by clicking Contact in the right sidebar, or you can email support@allaboutbipolar.com. I am accepting graphics, cartoons, stories, news, anything related to bipolar disorder.
I would like to thank Lisa Marie for her graphic work, which will become the official button for the 2012 Bipolar Disorder Awareness Month. Over the next few days, I will resize the button so it can be used on blogs and other websites. Be sure to check back. Posting the button on your website is a great way to show your support and help raise awareness.
If you would like to volunteer to help in some way, please email me at support@allaboutbipolar or use the contact form on the right sidebar. I am always in need of volunteers. Together we can reach a lot of people. Educating the public about bipolar disorder dispels the myths about this disorder. We need the world to understand this disorder. There are still lots of people that don’t understand the disorder, and this is why people are still throwing around the term “bipolar” as an insult. This is why people are embarrassed by the disorder. It needs to change, and you can start by helping spread the word.
Here is Lisa Marie’s graphic:

I have Bipolar Disorder II and it is hard sometimes! I wish the people around me could understand just a little about what i have to go through every day. I have no friends,family turned thier backs on me and it just makes it harder to deal with every day life! I am seeing a new doctor so maybe this will start helping cause i am 38 yrs old and just want to be able to enjoy life. We need more awareness about this disorder to help people understand. We need more support from people with the disorder to help people with the disorder cause we are the only ones that truly know what it is like to live with Bipolar Disorder.
