Bipolar : Education is profoundly effective; knowledge truly is power, and it's not just about educating the patient. It's also about educating the families of these patients, not to mention society as a whole.

Psychoeducation is: very important in treatment of bipolar disorder. However, I would not make that the only form of treatment. It should be one of the options used.
