http://www.mhsource.com/bpThese are 2 of my favorite sites. The first is run by
a mom who is an advocate and educator and the second
has good info also.
If you email the mom at the first site she'll send you
names and phone numbers of parents near you -- as I recall
some support groups are up and running and others are still
forming.
NAMI also can give you info on support groups for parents. If
you don't see the link you need, email the help link.I'm afraid I've not read either of the books you mention. I have
ADD myself and my daughter has bipolar II and ADHD -- I take it your
child copes with these 2 as well?I've visited the CABF forums and found the level of education
to be rather low -- but aside from that I have no idea about the
organization. Tho I share your skeptism about nearly everything --
TONS of sites about these 2 disorders just what to preach or disseminate
wierd stuff or lies.I very much like the bipolar forum at the Neurology Webforums at MGH.
How is child your child doing?
