"Dual Diagnosed--Meetings or Relapse? Hmmm...!
I hate those damned meetings! I never WANT to go! Why then DO I go to THOSE MEETINGS!?
You know, I suspect, that I'm talking about NA meetings, AA meetings, bipolar support group meetings.
So what are my OTHER choices?
If I spend time alone, my mind races; I have too much time on my hands; I begin to dwell on my fantasies, failures, and"

"Hi I am curious.... how much do genetics play a role in bipolar disorder.
My sister has this disorder, and my grandmother on my mom's side and my dad did as well. I'm worried about my kids, and myself and my little brother. What are the chances of the rest of us suffering from this disorder, and how far down the line will it go?"
