Hi, my name is Luanne and I’m a 64 year-old female. I was diagnosed with bipolar in 1995 so I’ve had it for over 30 years. At first I did not accept the diagnosis in my life was out of control. I lost many jobs and many friends. After the right medication combination and building a strong support system and learning other coping skills besides medication I began to get my life back. I now live in my own apartment. I have a family. I also have a job. My life is back on track and I can help you get your life back on track.
