Bi-polar disorder often does need medication, but it needs something else that it doesn't usually get - couselling.  Back in the old days it used to be called manic-depressive schizophrenia, and it was just one more of the schizo.-class disorders.  However, though many disagree, it is not purely an organic disorder.  It is greatly agravated by feelings of guilt, and those feelings are often present because there IS guilt.  It needs to be confessed and repented of, and new behavior begun and continued.  Thus the need for good, solid Christian counselling.  Meds can help, certainly, as they at least get the person to the point of receptivity to the counselling, but leaving off the counselling is a terrible mistake.  I've seen the results of the good, solid Christian counselling, and it is beautiful to behold.

Amen Al!

Thanks for that. 

Due to my trip to Virgiinia, I am opening the new Thoughts for the Week today.  I may not be on the computer much before I leave.

Hopefully, you will all understand.

Have a wonderful week.
