Bipolar Disorder
What is bipolar disorder? We've all heard various things about bipolar disorder, some accurate and some stigmatizing and incorrect. Today, I want to delve into the distinctions between bipolar 1 and 2, the experiences of those living with the condition, and the most effective ways to manage its symptoms. Firstly, it's important to recognize that individuals with bipolar disorder can lead fulfilling lives when receiving proper treatment. It's common for public discourse to focus on those who struggle to manage their symptoms, but it's vital to understand that they do not represent everyone with bipolar disorder. Additionally, individuals with mental illness are accountable for their actions and may simply require professional support to make positive choices. Displaying compassion and understanding as they work towards managing their symptoms is incredibly beneficial. It's also helpful to grasp the diagnostic criteria for bipolar 1 and bipolar 2, as outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). While the DSM is not exhaustive, it provides a framework for identifying symptoms and understanding the diagnostic process.

Your Words Are Your Sword.
People underrate their words so much and too often. When people often get a "You look nice today," they answer like: "What? Me? No, No, I look awful today; this was a rough morning…" and continue in the endless negative downward spiral.

The Twelve Step Approach: Outdated or needed now more than ever
This post is inspired by a few recent posts we have seen attacking Alcoholics Anonymous and other twelve step groups as outdated and ineffective. While the Beehive Recovery Blog does not promote one particular route to recovery as the only means to achieve sobriety, these posts prompted us to write some educational things about AA, as it has been a core part of many people’s path to happiness and freedom from drugs and alcohol (including most of our blog contributors). Everyone’s journey is different and there are many ways to achieve sobriety. Beehive Recovery Blog hopes to educate as many people as possible on the subject of addiction. This includes providing education in trends of addiction, recovery stories, treatment options and resources, as well as dispelling misconceptions.
