  • Incredible resource

    I can’t thank Laura and Brooke enough for providing the community with this resource. Not only are the incredibly knowledgeable they provide practical information on what it is truly like to live with a partner with bipolar. I find it so helpful to be able to go to a certain episode that I need guidance on given a certain situations. Not only that but they make the time to respond to you. I have not found any other resource that compares so thank you!

I’m constantly feeling... more
