| On the high seas, a Harbor of Refuge is known to be open to any vessel in distress requiring assistance, regardless of the flag it flies or the doctrines of its native country. In the same way, we hope to be a welcoming Harbor of Refuge for anyone with bipolar illness who comes here seeking conversation, information, or support -- | ||||||
|
Whatever it is that will ease your burden. |

This site was created to serve people who are receiving appropriate
medical treatment for their bipolar illness, including appropriate
medications. We also welcome affected friends and family members of
people with bipolar illness. We are not equipped, however, to serve
the needs of people who choose to go untreated for Bipolar Disorder.
Our greatest strength is the peer to peer support we offer one another,
but we are not licensed mental health professionals.
While we feel extreme compassion and empathy toward people who are experiencing thoughts of suicide, we are not in a position as an on-line community to attend to their needs. We strongly encourage anyone in that situation to immediately contact support people or crisis intervention services in their home community.
