While medication remains the bedrock treatment for bipolar disorder, a few different types of psychotherapy have been modified especially for people with this condition. The therapies that have been tested include helping patients work on family coping and relationships; learn to understand and reorder their own distorted thinking; and develop strategies for managing mood swings.
Things you should do for yourself:
Providing a solid structure for each day
Avoiding over stimulation and getting enough sleep
Resolving any family conflicts that contribute to symptoms
Learning to recognize the warning signs of manic and depressive episodes
May not sound like much, but even getting one of these helps SO MUCH ( but aim for all)

I will support him in his defense of the Constitution of the United States of America And I will understand that he must obey the orders of those appointed over him. I represent the true fighting spirit of the Army. And those who have gone before me with strength and loyalty around the world. I proudly stand by the one I love with Honor, Courage and Commitment.
