Welcome to another edition of Common Ground Online. Here's what's in this week's edition:
- Rachel Conner: U-Turn on Bipolar Avenue
- Take The Survey
Hello to the Truehope family,
|
| Rachel Conner |
I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Rachel Conner, and I am writing a book about EMPowerplus and achieving mental wellness. My book, U-Turn on Bipolar Avenue, is scheduled to come out this fall.
I am a Truehope participant myself, as well as a journalist by training, which gives me a unique set of qualifications for writing about this particularly challenging topic.
In early 2006 I was diagnosed as being bipolar, and I made the daring decision to try EMPowerplus even though my psychiatrist laughed at me and said it wouldn't work. Three years later, I am now well. (I think I had the last laugh!)
The adventure of becoming well has captivated me, and I have decided to write a book that will help others who are getting well too. The issues and challenges that we face as we take charge of our mental health naturally are quite different from the issues of people using traditional treatment methods. I am excited to write about this unique healing journey. My goal is to make the road easier for others, and also to help new participants believe that it IS possible to get well naturally!
Although this book will focus on bipolar disorder, I think it will be helpful to people recovering from a variety of illnesses.
The book I am writing is about the personal journey of each and every one of us who has gotten well with the help of EMPowerplus. But I need your help! I have written a survey to ask you about YOUR experiences with EMPowerPlus, and I would really love it if you would take the time to fill it out. Anyone taking EMPowerPlus, for any reason, is invited to take this survey.
The questionnaire has about 30 questions, depending on which version you get. (The one for people who have been on the Truehope program for two years or more is the longest survey, because I really want to know what they did to help them succeed.) Please share your journey with us all, whether you are brand new to the Truehope Program, or a seasoned veteran!
I feel a connection with those who use EMPowerplus, almost like you are family. I hope that you feel the same with me, and that you will take the time to help out!
And, on top of knowing that you are making other people's lives better by filling out this survey, Truehope has generously offered to give away some bottles of EMPowerplus to randomly selected survey respondents. Thank you, friends!
Your feedback will be anonymous, and I know you will enjoy hearing the results when they're in.
Yours in wellness,
Rachel Conner
Please take a few moments and take this survey so you can tell us about your experience of using EMPowerplus for your mental and physical well-being. (Only take the survey that applies to your circumstance.)
