Description
by Rachel A. Foreman (Author)
Unstable is a true account of the experiences of a young boy who had a sudden and severe onset of pediatric bipolar disorder in the middle of his kindergarten year. What was once a pile of email updates sent by his mother, a licensed clinical social worker, to his psychiatrist became a story of love and determination. The entries are raw and revealing, showing the daily realities of a family facing a diagnosis that is widely misjudged and misunderstood.
Included in the book is invaluable information on diverse topics that parents of mentally ill children will encounter. Readers will gain knowledge on navigating the school environment, choosing a doctor, and handling criticism. There are also sections on the challenges of parenting a child with bipolar disorder, along with tips on dealing with problem behaviors, as well as advice on the importance of self-care for caregivers.
Unstable is a valuable resource for parents, teachers, clinicians, and anyone looking to gain insight into this insidious childhood illness.
