Life after bipolar and a letter from Sir David Attenborough
May 21, 2019 Leave a comment
I am not sure if Karen will remember emails we exchanged many years ago while we were each still struggling, having been told no one recovers from bipolar disorder.
Contrary to ‘expert’ opinion, we have we each recovered. Karen has a video on this web page where she talks about her recovery: http://www.karentyrrell.com/recovered-bipolar-you-tube/
This is not new news, so why am I mentioning Karen now?
There is something about her latest book that is grabbing a great deal of attention. It is a letter of support from Sir David Attenborough for Karen’s ‘Great Barrier Reef Rescue’ for children, an eco-adventure mystery, to educate and empower kids to care for the reef.
I am sharing this because not only may it help inform more people of a new or greater danger to this habitat… It also to let more people know recovery is possible and Karen is one of many examples of people thriving beyond / after being described as bipolar.
