Speaking Engagement Request I know from first hand experience what it is like to deal with a love one that has Bipolar disorder. As you may already know, my mother has Bipolar Disorder and in order to help her, I literally took off from work for nine full months, talked to dozens of people in the medical field, read almost every book available on the disorder, attended support groups regularly, and did everything else I could think of to find answers. During my research, I realized that there were simply no books out there designed to help the supporters of people who have bipolar disorder, and I knew first hand that one was needed. I am more than willing to share the information I gathered in order to help people help their loved ones. If you would like to have me speak at an upcoming function, organization or meeting, please send the following information to david (at) mentalhealthworld.net with the subject line, "Speaking Engagement Request": Name/Organization Email Address Mailing Address Day and Evening Phone Numbers Thanks, David Oliver
