I am very interested in urban farming and self-sufficiency. Huge Douglas Adams, Roger Zelazny and Piers Anthony fan. I like reading Stephen King/Richard Bachman. I could spend hours with Terry Brooks and Shannara. T.S. Garp and I would get along famously. Avid Armchair Traveler ... especially Italy and Mongolia. Miicroadventures rock!

-----Cognitive Deficit in Bipolar Disorder. This is one of my current reads. It's written by Russ Federman Ph.D., A.B.P.P. The author writes a column on Psychology Today ... "Bipolar You: The Young Adult's Guide to Bipolar Depression."

The article has to do with changing cognition.

"One of the more overlooked aspects of bipolar disorder is the potential for developing a degree of cognitive deficit as part of the illness." Dr. Federman goes on to say the media largely focuses on stereotypes of bipolar.

I have been reading about cognitive distortions in bipolar and other illnesses, not just mental illnesses ... the distortion is basically where a person jumps to conclusions.
