Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem,
saying, " Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we
have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him. And
when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with
Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they
had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold,
frankincense, and myrrh. Matthew 2:1-2, 11

Mental Health- Spotlight on Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder is said to affect 5.7 million adult
Americans, which makes up about 2.6% of the U.S.
population. Bipolar disorder is a condition in which a
person has periods of depression and periods of being
extremely happy or being cross or irritable. In addition
to these mood swings, the person also has extreme
changes in activity and energy levels.
Bipolar disorder affects men and women equally. It
usually starts between ages 15 and 25. The exact cause
is not known. But it occurs more often in relatives of
people with bipolar disorder.
In most people with bipolar disorder, there is no clear
cause for the periods (episodes) of extreme happiness
and high activity or energy (mania) or depression and
low activity or energy (depression). The following may
trigger a manic episode:
Periods of depression or mania return in most patients,
even with treatment. Patients may also have issues
with alcohol or drug use. They may also have problems
with relationships, school, work, and finances. Suicide is
a very real risk during both mania and depression.
People with bipolar disorder who think or talk about
suicide need emergency attention right away.
Although bipolar disorder is a disruptive, long-term
condition, you can keep your moods in check by
following a treatment plan. In most cases, bipolar
disorder can be controlled with medications and
psychological counseling (psychotherapy).
This year we lost one of our very own, Lee Thompson
Young to the disorder.
In his honor his mother
Dr.Velma Love & sister Tamu Lewis have created The
Lee
Thompson
Young
Foundation,
a
Mental
Health Foundation dedicated to eliminating the stigma
associated with mental health conditions through
education, literacy and youth programs. They envision a
world in which mental illness is recognized by all as a
treatable, biological disorder and the stigma associated
with it no longer exists. A world that supports and
encourages wholeness and wellbeing at every stage of
life.
