From Marcia Purse, your Guide to Bipolar Disorder
After last week's newsletter went out, a reader contacted me saying the "What We're Talking About" links didn't work. He was right, and I don't know why it happened. If you are interested in reading any of the discussions listed in last week's newsletter, or if you have a problem with this week's links, please email me and I'll send you the individual link(s) for the items.
