Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ




Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 10:27-30. 

Jesus said: "My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.

I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand.

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father's hand.

The Father and I are one."

Cs of bipolar disorder




In the quest to make you or your loved one feel better and maintain stable moods, we focus on the three Cs of bipolar disorder:

Continuity of treatment: In this era of specialization and managed healthcare, patients often get shuttled from one doctor or therapist to another, and each professional may have a unique approach. Any drastic changes to medication or therapy can upset the balance, so this book encourages you to develop a treatment plan that all your caregivers follow and that remains with you when you change doctors or therapists.

Comprehensive treatment: The most effective treatment plan calls for a three-pronged attack of medication, therapy, and lifestyle change. There must be the most effective medications, therapies, peer support options, and lifestyle changes currently available.

Coordinated treatment: Communication is the key to coordinated treatment, and communication breakdowns are at the root of most failed attempts. To ensure success, communicate openly and honestly with your doctor, therapist, and loved ones and encourage them to communicate with one another. There are also techniques to improve communication among all members of your treatment team.
