Summary of Karla Dougherty's Less than Crazy
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The ill-informed attitudes that the words and comments above reflect have kept mental illness in the closet for years. They believe that bipolar disorder is as crazy as a heart condition, and that its symptoms are not as cut and dried. #2 People with bipolar I have extreme mood swings, which may include losing the need to sleep or eat, talking and thinking erratically, and becoming easily angry and irritated. They may be delusional, thinking, for example, that they are having relationships with famous people. #3 Manic episodes are diagnosed if elevated mood occurs with three or more of these symptoms most of the day, nearly every day, for one week or longer. #4 A depressive is diagnosed if five or more of these symptoms last most of the day, nearly every day, for a period of two weeks or longer.
Less than Crazy
Bipolar II is a form of bipolar disorder in which a person, when in a manic cycle, is crippled by anxiety, irritability, and highs just intense enough to be embarrassing. Instead of being the life of the party, someone with Bipolar II might be too nervous to go to the party at all. And, unlike the Bipolar I sufferer who may attempt suicide in a depressive cycle, the Bipolar II might be incapacitated by guilt over an imaginary crime. In Less than Crazy, health writer and Bipolar II sufferer Karla Dougherty shares her story, presenting the first patient-expert's guide to recognizing and living well with this condition. Covering both adults and children, this accessible, all-in-one resource includes information on diagnosis, conditions that may mimic Bipolar II, and treatments.

All I Ever Did was Love a Man
No one said being a single mother was easy, but, after some difficult years, Sabrena Collins seemed to finally have it together. She had a good-paying job, two beautiful daughters who were growing up with love and security, and a wonderful friend who was more like the sister she never had. She even had a man in her life who was everything her ex-husband was not: kind, generous and caring. Everything seemed perfect—except for one thing. Steve said he loved her, but he was unreliable. There was more than one night when Sabrena would lie in bed, waiting for the phone to ring…alone and crying silent tears. But when Sabrena was in his arms and he looked at her with his melt-on-the-spot chocolate brown eyes, all the problems, the sleepless nights, the cold dinners, all of that was forgotten. And then, suddenly, Sabrena’s world was turned upside down by a simple visit that led her on a frightening and unfamiliar path, that led her to a truth passion and words of love could not erase, a truth that would change her life forever. A truth that would test her faith, her courage, her strength, and above all else, her love…
