At one point while writing this book, eleven pages were written in just over an hour’s time. Non-stop writing with no "writers" cramps what so ever. I know that I have been inspired to write this book not only for my own benefit, but to help bring clarity and hope to others. When I look into this type of writing, the smells, faces, temperatures, colors, timing, feelings, and the memories are all there right in front me. My hand has a difficult time keeping up with my brain.

The words and memories are guided to me with the laughter, memories, and tears of my dear Mother and friends. I dedicate this book to all those who suffer and succeed with this BiPolar disease.

Many of my dear friends have successfully gone on before me, yet are still very much with me. I wish them the best of luck as well.

May all those who read, experience, or may yet experience BiPolar disorder benefit from this. As well as the support of their loved ones, friends, family, mentors, and care takers. For those with little to no support, may they find their way.

I, Christopher Cardon am Rapid Cycle BiPolar. I am successful, because of my God and others. May God Bless you in your individual journey throughout life and then some. Remember, remember, remember:

BiPolar does not have me, I have BiPolar by the tail.

Never give up on yourself or a loved one that carries this burden and fights this battle. The cures, answers, and solutions are coming.

Your friend always,

Christopher J. Cardon

Nice cure for depression!!

Dear Friends,

The last blog discussed the depression I was feeling.  I visited my doctor last Friday & I am well pleased with the results!  He quickly reviewed the previous visits since February of 2010. 

He told me the progression of events that leads to depression & beyond.  First, he told me that a person starts becoming a recluse & wants to stay inside.  Secondly,  anxiety starts to form.  Next, the person begins to become obssed with catastrophes. Then when going to public places, the worry of where to exit if something were to happen becomes an overwhelming condition. 

Finally,  the person dealing with depression begins to get involved with thoughts of death of other people.  At this point the affected person has gone to far,  & needs to be seen quickly by a Crisis worker @ a hospital.  The reason why this is so crucial, is the next step, is when the person begins thinking of taking his/hers life.

After the discussion with my doctor, he increased my Lamictal from 100mg per evening to 200 mg.  Then after two weeks,  the dosage increases to 300mg.  I have all ready felt a difference with the increase.  I give many thanks again to my Doctor for being attentive  as well as through. 

Have a great day & remember,  "Life is Good!!"

Sincerely,

Christopher
