Evey year as many as 15 million Americans suffer from major depression and bipolar disorder, the two most common forms of mental illnes. If undiagnosed or untreated, suicide can become the desperate option for these people. In Never Regret the Pain: Loving and Losing a Bipolar Spouse, Sel Erder Yackley reveals the cascading effects of her husband's suicide. Sel shares her story of how she keeps his memory alive, and her children together, while struggling with the knowledge he refused proper treatment. Includes a referral section and websites for those who struggle with depression, mental illness, and support groups for family and friends.
Review: This book is a rare combination of stories. Together, they tell of an extraordinary woman with outsized drama who left the life designed for her and plunged into another one. Anyone who has triumphed in the face of loss-- or hopes to do--will be inspired by Sel Yackley's journey. Stephen Kinzer, Former New York Times bureau chief. "I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in early 2000 after years of being undiagnosed and confused about what was wrong with me. Lithium, Depakote, anti-depressants of all varieties...I could relate to Frank not wanting to take his meds. When bipolars are in their mode, the last thing they want is the feeling of being controlled." I bought this book and devoured it. My daughter, Dianne, 20, was diagnosed a year ago. She is not honest about her symptoms, so the meds aren't doing as much good for her as they could. She is doing poorly at Purdue, losing friends, and can't stand to be around me when she is in her manic stages."
