Find your rhythm.

Manage your pain.

Design your lifestyle to support health and balance.


Do you or someone you know deal with bipolar depression or addiction? Intact teaches the reader how to respond to subtle signals from their brain and from their spirit and to:


- Recognize and fight the pain of mild depression before it triggers relapse.

- Accommodate circadian rhythms prone to imbalance to help avoid mania, depression, or relapse.

- Change thinking patterns.

- Develop healthy ways of dealing with stress.


Between the ages of 18 and 26, author Sasha Kildare's summers became drugs, sex, psychosis, and psych wards. During manic episodes, she ended up in handcuffs and was raped several times. The integrative treatment she received at Bellevue Hospital, her seventh hospitalization, broke that cycle. She shares her compelling story, the knowledge, and insight that allowed her to overcome buried childhood trauma and addiction so that she could experience, motherhood, fulfilling careers, and long-term remission from bipolar depression.


Don't let shaky circadian rhythms, inadequate nutrition, past trauma, and more jeopardize your remission or recovery.


"Sasha Kildare truly delivers. Intact is more than a memoir. It's a fully original, no-holds barred journey of storytelling, poetry, and education." Brian Whisenant, LGBTQ Programmer, Oxford Film Festival

Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People with Physical and Cognitive Disabilities (Revised)
<b>NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT- OVERSTOCK SALE - Significantly reduced list price </b> <p/> This TIP, <i>Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People With Physical and Cognitive Disabilities</i>, is intended to enhance treatment providers' knowledge concerning people who have a physical or cognitive disability in addition to their substance use disorder. Treatment programs for substance use disorders already see many individuals with coexisting disabilities, but many providers fail to accommodate these individuals either because they are unaware of the disability or how accommodations can improve treatment outcomes (even though such accommodations are legally mandated). The first chapter defines and explains the issues involved in treating people with coexisting disabilities. Chapter 2 discusses how to screen for coexisting disabilities and how to adapt substance use disorder screenings for clients who have a disability. Chapter 3 discusses treatment planning and counseling&#x3b; it also describes how treatment can be modified to meet the particular needs of people with coexisting disabilities. Forming linkages with other service providers is the topic of Chapter 4, and Chapter 5 presents material for program administrators. In Appendix B, there is a comprehensive list of resources. Appendix C discusses the proper language to use when referring to people with disabilities. <i>Alcohol and Drug Programs and the Americans With Disabilities Act</i>, a pamphlet from the Pacific Research and Training Alliance, is reproduced in Appendix D.
