Summer months…don’t you (mostly) LOVE them? For many this may be the last time your child lives with you at home before heading off to college in the fall. For others it may be the time your child returns from college and you know things have changed. They come with dirty laundry, exhausted, and not used to the “rules of the house” after living independently for nine months. For young adults with bipolar it is often a time to rejuvenate, relax and sometimes repair. It is also a time to prepare.
