An Unquiet Mind...A MEMOIR OF MOODS AND MADNESS saved my life at a time that I was suicidal. I thank God for you, Dr. Redfield Jamison.
Please take care of yourself, even when you hate yourself.
Your honesty, vulnerability and authenticity, in your position of authority, is refreshing. Hopefully, as more professionals speak up, there will be less stigma attached to health, mental health and addictions.
Unquiet mind was the first book recommended to me when I was first diagnosed. It's now one of the books I recommend.
Same here. I just spent 7 days in a behavioral health unit for the first time. It saved my life. Started lithium and responding well. The doc recommended Unquiet Mind as the first book I should read after discharging. It's incredible and SO relatable.
Do you have her email address? Please, it's emergency
@@mohammadhajihosseinlu8617 Your comment was 3 months ago, but are you okay now? Just wanna make sure....
Me too, it is fantastic. Not long after I read it, I had a breakdown about 4 years ago and was hospitalized. I asked my doctor there if I could try lithium, and I've been on it ever since, and these 4 years have absolutely been the most stable, peaceful, and productive of my entire life. I feel eternally indebted to Jamison and I am so glad I took the initiative to ask for lithium that day. I also bought a copy of the book for my dad, who is also bipolar, and he loved it as well.
@@katrinaleightilley8741 me too.
I'm happy for your success. I was discriminated against by a private university (Saint Mary's University of Minnesota) for my Bipolar disorder.
just finished "an unquiet mind"- thank you for your honest work
18:24 gave me goosebumps - thanks for sharing! So much courage to be taken from her story
Thanks to everyone who is helping me to feel alive during the quarantine. 😭
it has been very difficult for me too. I am Brazilian and here our president is not and has never been concerned with speeding up the vaccination process.
I admire Kay Redfield Jamison immensely. Her book changed my life. I wish I could have a conversation with her about mental illness and her thoughts on Bipolar 2 since it is not talked about often when people speak on bipolar.
I am a year away from starting a doctorate program to become a Clinical Psychologist
That is amazing I am really happy for you. You give me hope that I can reach my dreams. I’d love to hear more about your journey if possible. Good luck on continuing your journey.
you are about to see the truth emerge refer to Burton Hutto UNC Chapel Hill
@@jp8442 Thank you! It’s been a challenge to say the least but I am so thankful to God because I have come out of darkness when it seemed that darkness is all there was
I am open to answering any questions you have
Hi bro, I'm also biplor 2 patient last 14 years I'm facing this issue but I can treat by following medicine lamitor, lithium, ssri, amisulpride. But amisulpride reduced my sexual desire, so my doctor prescribed instead of those medications lamitor, lithium, oxcarbazepine, zonisamide, and sertraline 25 mg, but my mood has not stabilised yet. Almost one month completed. Can you suggest how to get Kay Red Jamison an appointment in India?
You haven't truly lived until you're BP1.Kidding, sort of....but Congrats and best of luck going forward.0
What a fabulous video! Thank you!
Your authenticity is refreshing and needed in this field. Bravo!
Just saw your video .
Incredible,insight into the disorder.
Thank you very much.
It would definately help millions around the world to accept and Understand this anomaly.
Regards
Dr. Kay is amazing! Her book is one of the most beautiful texts I have already read. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after a hospitalization this year, almost 5 years after I have finished my PhD in chemistry. It has been difficult times. I spent the last 18 months sleeping 15h/day, so tired that I couldn't get out of bed. People used to tell me I am lazy. In the best case scenario, they tell me I needed antidepressives...but they didn't work with me (not in the last years...I have depression since childhood). But then I remember Dr. Kay and her amazing book and life...and I start to believe that I can get control back of my own life too. Thanks for exist Dr. Kay! You really inspire me to moving on! God bless you!
Simple medication for depression is exercise and eating healthy. Also being mindful of things you watch.
My mother has the illness, this has been very good to understand what goes on, thank you for the lecture.
It is a new journey for me and my partner, as we are falling apart. Constant mania dealing with doctors and medication, resisting lithium as an option from the doctor. A deep separation from who she was.. depression isn’t the primary problem it’s extreme mania. Being patient is very difficult. The mind is flooded with constant information.
If you suffer from bipolar disorder, please do not resist lithium. It's a cycle of mania and depression and all are connected. What people do not realise, the consequences of mania leads to depression. The brain works in mysterious ways, when your deep down that rabbit hole of depression, the brain goes into protective mode and pushes you back to mania. To control the moods, medication is a must so demolish the ideology of not needing medication because the results could be destructive.
@@shahchoudhury5301 my partners doctor wanted to use another medication not indicated for mania but depressive illness like trulicity.
I found lithium as the gold standard for mania or mixed bipolar 1. I had to fight for lithium as the needed medication and I had to work very hard to help my partner understand and agree to lithium. We are on track to start lithium next week.
Personally this has been a devastating change and new diagnosis of a 57 yr old women, symptoms didn’t start until over 50. Very odd to me but it is what it is. It’s ruined her work life, personal life and it’s ruining our life as well. Like you said the toll is deep.
I understand what you’re experiencing. It’s heartbreaking and infuriating to deal with a person with manic depression. It’s exhausting
@@Authenticallyher1 Are you still out there? Isn't Trulicity for type 2 diabetics?
@@jackschitt6235 I think it is
I think I should go to the DC area soon
Starts at 5.20
I feel like my dreams are outside influences not entirely my own imagination
So sad to see that this brilliant woman could not see that there never was anything wrong with her as a teenager but that the world around her was "wrong."
The mindfulness book "30 Days to Reduce Depression" by Harper Daniels is a good resource.
Thank you for recommending the good book.
