A guide for mental health professionals, carers and those who live with it

Danny Walsh and Roger Smith

This handbook brings together the knowledge and experience of both health professionals and those with bipolar disorder to create a balanced, informative and very practical guide to good practice in understanding and managing the disorder.

The 36 chapters cover a wide range of subjects, including diet, supporting the family, counselling, warning signs and relapse prevention, to develop the reader’s understanding of many aspects of the disorder. The chapters also contain case studies, exercises and consideration points for those who want to expand on their reading.  

The handbook is divided into four sections:

Section 1 Theories and approaches behind bipolar disorder
Section 2 In-patient/acute care
Section 3 Bipolar in the community
Section 4 Related conditions and conclusions

The handbook is written by a mental health nurse and a researcher with experience of bipolar disorder and recovering from it. It also draws upon the experiences of people whose lives have been disrupted by the disorder.


Vital information for: people with bipolar disorder, family and friends, mental health nurses, social workers and other health professionals
