内容简介

When loss or illness strikes a family, young people don't always have the experience to help them cope. These seven new titles can help them find the strength and the resources to help them get through even the toughest situation.While in casual conversation people may complain of having a "manic day, " few realize the severity and suffering involved in living with bipolar disorder. Here, readers will learn the history of this mood disorder and how frequently it eludes diagnosis. The author also reveals the connection between this pervasive cyclical disorder, substance abuse, suicide, and, interestingly, artistic expression.
