I had a friend named Heather Brown when I was in middle school. To my amazement, you actually live in Indiana and I do as well. I don't know if you could possibly be my old friend or if this is just coincidence. I live in Kokomo and I have my whole life. I have been living with bipolar for 12 years. I only found out it was bipolar and not major depression about 5 years ago when I had a major manic episode, which was actually my first episode. I am hoping to scrape together enough money to purchase your book. I have just recently been reading as much as I can about bipolar to try and figure out what all of these moods and feelings I have mean and what they would be classified as, mania, hypomania or just depression. It's all so confusing for me. I have been married for 18 years. We have been together for 21 years and have 4 children. A daughter 16, and 3 boys, 13,12,8. My mom was never diagnosed with bipolar or depression and committed suicide in 1998. After what I have seen in myself I have no doubt that she was bipolar. After my mom's suicide I fell into deep depression. I couldn't work any longer and had to go on permanent disability. I am on 3 different meds now, but things have only gotten worse. I hope this might be my old friend that I have been rambling to. I read this because of just seeing your name. I had a friend named Heather Brown when I was in middle school.
