Bipolar: Critical Email to Me

=>PLEASE FORWARD TO FRIENDS, FAMILY AND LOVED ONES <=

Hi,

How's this day going for you?

I hope you're having a good one.

You know, I come out with new material on
bipolar disorder all the time, because I want
to help people with the disorder and their
supporters.

That's my bottom line.

I want to keep you up-to-date and give you new
information all the time, information I think you
need to know.

And most people thank me, telling me how good the
material is, and how much they enjoyed it, and how
much they learned from it.

I've even had people tell me how a report or course
saved their life or the life of their loved one!

Others have told me how a report or course even
saved their marriage!

But look at what this person wrote me:

"I don't belive in what most of what you say.
unsless of course you DO have the SUPPORT of
others ( like you say ).Tell me..how do you get that?!!!!
Amanda"

Well, what do I say to that?

What would you say, if you were doing what you
believed in most, and you thought you were helping
a lot of people, and someone came along and trashed
what you were doing?

First off, I read the comment again very carefully.

I tried to read it again without my first emotional
reaction.

Look at the first line:

"I don't belive in what most of what you say."

MOST of what I say.

Well, that means that she at least believes in
SOME of what I say, right?

That means I'm getting some good information
out to her, and that's encouraging to me.

I never said that everything I write is going to please
everyone.

I know that some of what I write, that some people
might think I'm crazy for writing (especially when
I talk about some of my friends! lol)

Or when I talk about some of the things that happen
to me (and, yes, they really do happen to me).

Or how I tie everything in to bipolar disorder.

Even the strangest of things!

Or when I post some of the comments, like this one,
that this lady wrote to me.

But the important thing is that I'm honest.

That's the one thing that I am.

Because I believe in what I do, and that's who I am.

I assume you're honest, too.

Would you be defensive about that?

Would you defend yourself against the comments
that this woman made if she made them about you?

In my courses/systems, I talk about the importance
of having a strong support system.

I only bring that up because it sounds to me
like this woman doesn't have one, or else why
would she ask me:

"unsless of course you DO have the SUPPORT of
others ( like you say ).Tell me..how do you get
that?!!!!"

So let me ask:

How DO you get the support of others?

If you have bipolar disorder, you get it by developing
a strong support system, like I was saying before.

How does a supporter get the support of others?

By developing their own support system.

By not isolating, by not letting the world of bipolar
disorder overwhelm them...

By having their own set of friends, etc.

How do I get the support of others?

I give them good information that they need to
know.

And everyone should have the support of their family
behind them, whether they have bipolar disorder or
are supporting someone who does.

What do you think?
