Is there Grace for the Bipolar?

2011-05-25T12:27:00.032-04:00

Lets not forget the Grace of God and His Righteousness. You see Gods Word tells us that the Lord gives us His righteousness towards us even when we don’t deserve it. (Bipolar) In Revelation it says that the Lord places a robe of righteousness upon us. Notice; It’s His righteousness not ours, we can’t earn it or ever deserve it. It’s free! To those that simply receive it.

The Problem is... most of us feel too guilty to receive it. We feel the symptoms of Bipolar make us feel unworthy

It's like the Prodigal son.. It says he was lost but now is found..

The Prodigal story of the lost son is a powerful story of Gods Grace towards us....

In the Prodigal; after the son has spent all his money on partying and wild living, (Manic) it says the father is still anticipating his soon return by looking out the window (so to speak) for his return.

Once he sees him coming he runs down the road and hugs him and kisses him as Our Heavenly Father does for us.... and then does 4 incredible things....

Put yourself in his Bipolar shoes.

"The father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him" The Robe is authority.

Putting a ring on his hand meant Wealth and Dignity

"Sandals on his feet." Servants don’t usually wear sandals or shoes so for his father to put sandals on meant that his son was being brought back into the family.

And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' And they began to be merry.

Through The Prodigal Parable we see God Restoring a Lost Son or Daughter. and not just a little bit - but to full Sonship or as Daughters.

From the many e-mails we get, the thing we hear the most are Bipolar Victims beating themselves up, their tired, depressed, their High there Low their Manic, spunout.

Yet Grace is the greatest object of the Bible. People are saved by Grace. And yet for some the hardness of their heart keeps people from the tenderness of Grace.

Eph 2:8,9 By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

What we need is a full grip of Grace... It's Free, We can't deserve it,Just stretch our your feeble hands and take it. If you need help take advantage of our free Counseling.... Free Christian Counseling.bipolar christian Counseling

Bipolar Symptoms Manic & Depressed

2011-05-16T11:33:00.018-04:00

Maybe you woke up today and you heard the same ole; your not worth anyting, your a reject, your life will never amount to anything, your a nobody, who do you think your are?

my advice is to remind ourselves of this small chapter below on a daily basis.

Let’s not forget the Grace of God and His Righteousness. You see Gods word tells us that the Lord gives His righteousness towards us even when we don’t deserve it. In Revelation it says that the Lord places a robe of righteousness upon us. Notice; It’s His righteousness, not ours, we can’t earn it or ever deserve it. It’s free! To those that simply receive it.

Some of the e-mails we get describe How people are wanting to marry someone that has BP and that there spouses are there to support their mate. Wow what an exciting celebration and success story..... The spouse understands the high and the lows and the emotions in between. I think that's great. I believe everyone with Bipolar Disorder should have a godly Caregiver. My wife understand my Crazies and my lows. If your going to get married make sure they understand all the aspects or BP

Even as we speak i have run out of my Bipolar meds and i am going nuts, cycling, rapid thoughts, very hyper etc. She is handling me well until I see my psychiatrist in a couple of Days.Enough about me.

Some of the e-mails we get are people searching for help; trying to get answers for their spouses of boyfriend girlfriend.... again I'll say it. Make sure your BP sufferer is taking the prescribed meds the Dr. is giving them. This will balance them out so they may live normal days.

I received a list from Web MD For you to compare your spouse or friends BP with....

During a manic episode in someone with bipolar disorder, elevated mood can manifest itself as either euphoria (feeling "high") or as irritability.

Abnormal behavior during manic episodes includes:

Flying suddenly from one idea to the next
Rapid, "pressured," and loud speech
Increased energy, with hyperactivity and a decreased need for sleep
Inflated self-image
Excessive spending
Hypersexuality
Substance abuse

People in manic episodes may spend money far beyond their means, have sex with people they wouldn't otherwise, or pursue grandiose, unrealistic plans. In severe manic episodes, a person loses touch with reality. They may become delusional and behave bizarrely.

Untreated, an episode of mania can last anywhere from a few days to several years. Most commonly, symptoms continue for a few weeks to a few months. Depression may follow shortly after, or not appear for weeks or months.

Many people with bipolar I disorder experience long periods without symptoms in between episodes. A minority have rapid-cycling symptoms of mania and depression -- even alternating between mania and depression in the same day.

Depressive episodes in bipolar disorder are similar to "regular" clinical depression, with depressed mood, loss of pleasure, low energy and activity, feelings of guilt or worthlessness, and thoughts of suicide. Depressive symptoms of bipolar disorder can last weeks or even years.

It was when a doctor confronted me with these symptoms that i new it was over for me. I lined up with every Bipolar description he pronounced..... I cried, I got mad, i was confused,felt like breaking furniture, I felt like my ministry service to God was a waste of 24 yrs. My wife came by my side and cared for me. She got me the meds and everything leveled out. I call it "vanilla" Being bipolar can be dangerous without Meds it can be a life destroyer. People do indescribable things while Bipolar. (read my testimony) But it can also be peaceful if your psychiatrist is giving you the right combo of meds.

Let me say this; the world say you need 12 steps to get your life right. I say there is 1 step. Lay your Will and Brokenness down at the cross and begin living a Spirit filled life Strengthening, Equipping and Encouraging Gods People To Embrace A Spirit Led Life Of Faith and Worship! .

How do you cope with the Mania or Manic Depression?

2011-04-22T18:05:00.021-04:00

There are alot of people that are going through varied difficulties to say the least. Manic and spun out to Depressed and unable to cope with life's basic needs. I will also add that some struggle with oversexuality or Porn.

Well it just so happen i am on the manic side this week. Kinda spun out and driving my poor wife crazy. Rapid Cycling thoughts and Ideas, very hyper. It seems my meds are no longer working and were going to have to go back in and visit my Phsyc.

My thoughts are for you... Yes how do you do? How do you cope with the manic side or the manic Depression? Are you depending on your Meds or are you out there on your own? Do you have family? workers? Brothers & Sisters Let us no how we can help....

Listen your not on your own when we have Jesus! He is the answer to all our absurdities and emotional weaknesses.
I believe He wants to heal the brokenhearted no matter what form that takes.
Many times the gospels say He Healed them into the night.... who? The demon possessed, the schizophrenia, the mentally ill down to the common cold.

My point is this, even though you may be going through some difficult times with with your bipolar Issues we can still lean on Jesus and yes He can flood us with His peace

Don't let the world tell you your hopeless and you are beyond help. God has a plan for you whether you are Manic or Depressed.

I must encourage you to dive into the bible,read your favorite verses again, read the psalms they are full of Davids bipolar issues. Things that will pull you through.

You don't need to struggle through each day, God is bigger than our issues. Right?

Gods Grace and Mercy for the bipolar...

2011-04-18T23:02:00.004-04:00

I believe the key word to describing the Christian faith is "struggle"
Let's face it we get allot of letters from people that are honestly struggling in their personal lives with being Bipolar. They'll say things like Im doing the best i can, and our hearts go out in compassion.

What this reveals is a Christianity that is focused on our ability instead of Gods ability.
Where most people breakdown in their Christian life is when they are simply trying harder! Lots of luck... Try harder with what? How? I've looked inside of me and I know how many times I've failed the Lord, myself, And my wife. No wonder Paul said to the Galatians. "Are you so foolish? After beginning in the spirit are you now going to perfect yourselves in the flesh?"

Maybe some of you who have written for counsel in your situation will notice my quick answers. It usually comes from the knowledge that only Jesus can do a work in and through our lives. I realize i can't change myself, Only He through His great grace and mercy can produce the changes we are all looking for.... Amen?
Don't loose heart, you can change, you don't have to live struggling in your faith or walk. Being bipolar doesn't mean you have failed or are out of Gods reach.

I believe I've been bipolar for most of my life....

2011-04-12T15:19:00.007-04:00

I've been bipolar for most of my life and just lately I have begun to accept my

Bipolarism. For years I have hated it, not understood why I have to have it. After all I have been Pastoring Calvary Chapels for 28 yrs, why me. How did i do that? But just lately my wife told me I need to accept my BP and no longer reject what God is doing in my life. Rejecting my BP is rejecting Gods plan for my life.

By the way I know i tell most of you to keep taking your Meds. Well A little secret, I hate my Meds too, especially the side effects.

Romans 5:5 says... Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Not knowing which way is up or down because your bipolar is frustrating. But knowing Jesus makes sense. I have a Bipolar website where we get alot of counseling emails. I could go into details but the most frustrating thing we confront is mature believers claiming they don't believe there saved anymore. That's tough. and it seems Satan wins.

5....Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Being bipolar can leave you lost, upside down, and not knowing what reality is and right when you feel like you know whats going on your kids correct you, how embarrassing.

That's why when you read verses like this, it really melts in your mouth.

I don't know what your faced with but I would like to say " trust the Lord with the details of your life" Everything should be filtered through the wisdom of Gods Word. Allow Him to have the preeminence and control over your life.

Immediate Help For Bipolar Christians

2011-01-17T15:36:00.010-05:00

Many of the people that come here are seeking answers and Immediate Help for their Bipolar symptoms. They don't want to read articles and stories, although Pastor Dave provides personal testimonies of his destruction. But many are seeking Help and are looking for Hope for their personal circumstances.

The first thing I would like to say to those seeking Help and Hope is that it can only come from Jesus as our loving Savior. As we read thru the bible many times Jesus healed those that sought Him out for healing.

And that's what we need is Immediate healing. Healing from the chemical imbalance, the depression, the manic crazies, and freedom from the thoughts that invade our minds.

Hey lets face it when I'm Manic I feel fine, normal, talkative, ready to take on the world, I feel 10ft tall and 4ft wide.
Right now you may feel like there's nothing that can be done for you.
Your hopeless. But only Jesus can give you a hope and a future.

Please read these verses below. I believe there are Immediate answers for you but you need to be open to what the Lord wants to do for you.
Heb 12:12-13 Eph 4:23.

Many times when we are seeking help from God we fall short because lets face it... We've prayed, we've asked God for deliverance, we went to counselors, we've had friends give us advice.
But I must say the only thing that works is.... The right combination of Meds and The Word of God. You mean that's it!
That's it. I trust my Doctor, my Counselor, my Psychiatrist and of course Gods Word....
The very thing we need for our Imbalance is.... John 17:17 and Rom 12:1,2

There is freedom and hope for our Chemical Imbalance. It may not disappear overnight. My psych said it may get worse as we get older. And I do notice progressive changes in my situation.

Ok what is the Immediate help or hope for my circumstances?

1. We need to be on the right meds and stay consistent with them.
2. We need to be in Gods Word and I don't mean a verse a day. I mean a chapter or two. It will renew your mind. Seriously!
3. Try to get outside, maybe a short walk. any form of exercise will clear your mind.

This list may seem simple and I'm not trying to insult you, but, yes it works.

The Help and Hope you are looking for can only be found in Jesus Christ. . The Worlds Help is helpless, empty, nothing to offer us as believers. It's only by the power and inner work of the Holy Spirit thru Gods Word that we can be set free from the old life and the old mind.

Help And Hope for those suffering thru Depressed and Manic days

Help For Bipolar Christians?

We get alot of messages from people not taking there medications and wondering why they do what they do or wondering why they are feeling the way they do. We would like to encourage you to take your meds. I remember once a while back a Doctor was going through my website and wrote me saying "He was blown away that I encouraged people to take their Meds". Anyway, if you are feeling Anxious or Depressed or Suicidal make sure you are doing what your Doctors are telling you, even though it might not seem right, trust them.

You can make it through another day if you pick up your bible and seek the lord.

Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

This is how we have victorious days. Remember it's not by our strength that we are victorious over our manic state or thru our depression. The last thing you want to do is get spiritual, but we must seek out the only one that can heal us...

Again we need to stop trying on our own to make things happen concerning our Bipolar Issues. The only help we can get is thru Jesus Christ. Trust Him and seek him while there is still time...

Jer 29:11-14

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.14 I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity...

Christian help for my bipolar disorder

2010-11-03T11:14:00.002-04:00

Well I just got back from my Phsyc Doc and he recommended that i check into the mental hospital. Wow am I that bad. My wife says yes and I dont know what to say. I know that i have been very manic. It seems no matter what they give me i just keep going manic.

I may check into the hospital just to make everyone happy but just the thought makes me nervous... you know.."One flew over the coo-coo's nest"

There must be some help for my bipolar disorder and we know where to go don't we? Jesus is the only answer for this bipolar disorder. It was peter that said the wisest thing that night Jesus said in John 6:65 "will you also leave me. And Peter said where else can we go you are the only one with eternal words" aahh very wise Peter.

Lets not forget that we have a beautiful King on the throne willing to heal us from the racing thoughts, the depression and the manic side of our disorder.

Phil 2:9-11

9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Can eating healthy and Working Out Help my Chemical Imbalance?

I have been clinically evaluated as bipolar 1.

Recently I have been challenged to loose 100lbs. and so i started using my wife's P90X DVD's and I must say even though it is for strength and weight loss, I have been thinking clearer and find I have more energy.

I know many BP victims do not want to hear that we need to exercise.

It has only been 35 days since I started but I believe there is a connection between exercise and mental health. The product can be found here..... http://www.beachbody.com/

Like I said I'm no expert but I have been cleansed. I don't know if it's the exercise or the diet, but I do feel incredibly different. Healthy and Fit. I'm along way from my goal but I believe it can be reached.

Again as much as you may not want to hear that you need to exercise, you need to know that it's brain food. And It's good for you even, if its only 10 minutes at first.

Christian help for my bipolar disorder

2010-10-06T18:50:00.002-04:00

Hello everyone, I really need your prayers.... My doc gave me a new Med because my zyprexa and litheum is no longer working. So he gave me a new med called saraquel. But believe it or not it is making me manic and I cant catch my breath. I am very hyper and my emotions are out of control, even the smallest things make me upset.

Anyway, I'm sure I'll be ok. I trust the Lord to give me peace and rest. Hey It's better than being Depressed.

Pastor Dave

New Meds?

2010-09-21T13:56:00.000-04:00

Hey everyone, Well my wife tells me Iv'e been Manic for the last 2 weeks. She's pretty good at figuring out what's best for me and I trust her, even though I thought I was fine. I had energy, I was talkative, I was ready to do whatever....
I even started a new workout program called P90X. Man I'm pumped! But my wife took me in to the phsyc and they gave me "Sarquel" for my manic state. I can't tell any difference but my wife seems to like it. At least I'm not in bed deppressed. New Meds, great. I'll be honest I love being manic. I feel 10 foot tall and 4 foot wide you know.... superman. Especially after I've been depressed for the last 6 months. You know up and down, but mostly down. I hate it. I hate my life when I'm down.

Praise God for Meds. I talk to some believers and they think meds are the worlds way of trying to cure something demonic. As a Pastor I dont believe Bi-Polar is demonic. I believe its a Chemical Imbalance and sometimes can get better but I also hear that with age it progresses.
I am 48 and I do notice that my Bi-Polar has progressed to a new stage.

Anyway God is in it with us and He can Heal and restore us. Lets just seek Him as the blind man on the side of the road called out "Jesus Messiah" and Jesus gave Him his sight back. So God can give us back our Vision and Excitement for Life!

God Bless You...

Now I'm Bipolar

2010-08-10T10:03:00.003-04:00

Many of my Pastor Colleagues and I have discussed that a Christian shouldn't take medication but to trust the Lord and the Word of God who alone can heal. But, now I am Bi-Polar and have had it for probably 30 yrs. Do I reject the medication that would help stabilize me and benefit my family?

I used to tell my wife and Kids (for example) God has called us to plant a church in Colorado or Idaho or Kentucky and yes we would pack and go do it. God was merciful and I believe He blessed my futile efforts and a church of 75 -100 would crop up in months and then I would get depressed and walk away from the very thing I dreamed about.
I am going to quickly answer some of the questions I have posed and do my best to help those believers that feel condemned, guilty or have been told several different things
1. Yes believers can definitely be bi-polar. I believe King David was bi-polar as well as King Solomon, Job, and the most famous preacher ever to approach a pulpit...C.H.Spurgeon. He was clearly bi-polar and wrote an incredible book on the subject called "dark nights and bright days"
2. Should you take medicine or trust the Lord? As a Pastor I have been asked hundreds of times; "can I lose my salvation?" My response "live as if you can and enjoy Gods Grace!"

In other word take your meds and walk as close to the lord as you possibly can. Fill your heart and mind with Gods word, and follow your doctors advice. sure, at times it may be worldly but that's why God has given us His Word so that we may discern the ungodly from the Godly. throw out the bad and keep what works.
When I am going in for emergency surgery I don't stop the stretcher and ask the doctor if he went to a Christian medical school and if he is a trained Christian physician.
Doing all we can to live a healthy stable Christian life is exactly what thousands of Christian Bipolar victims have tried to do. Only to feel like they have failed again and again. I cant tell you how many times I have dusted my self off pick up my cross and started over again only to be told maybe your just not called to the ministry or maybe you just haven't really surrendered your heart yet.
I remember sobbing, many times, in the middle of the night; just me and Jesus as I would beg to find the peace it seemed other believers experienced. why not me?

How can I just have a consistent walk like they have?

I now believe it is possible. How? Paul said in Ephesians 6 - speaking on spiritual warfare, he said "having done all to stand, therefore stand."

1. I believe we have to do all to stand, again take all your medicine.

2. Spend more time in prayer; asking specific things i.e. strength, protection, discernment over thoughts, for a close bro or sister to talk to.

3. Become involved in a Solid Home Bible Study so you are fellowshipping with others; so you may see examples of a strong Christian Walk.

4. Journal; I hate journaling, every body tells me to do it. But then, somehow, I would be responsible for what I think and then I would have to do something about it... I hate that. But I have begun to write down my depressed thoughts anyway and my manic episodes.

What's a manic episode? I had one that lasted for a yr before I finally burned-out.
I was a Calvary Chapel Youth Pastor in 2003 studying for and teaching 13 bible studies a week (not exaggerating) to 100 students at a High School Seminary and a Church.

When the Sr Pastor told me he had a vision for a new College mid week study; I volunteered to staff it, oversee it, play all the Worship and do all the events, on top of all my other responsibilities. I kept the pace for 1 yr. Until one morning in the middle of a staff meeting I left the Church, my job, my wife and 7 kids to go Surfing for the rest of my life. 2 days later I came to my senses and was brought home by a very cool brother who loved me!
Now That's Manic....

Grace and Peace
Pastor Dave

The Joy of the Lord

2010-07-24T11:49:00.000-04:00

I was just listening to one of my favorite bible teachers on the subject of Joy. and his reference was "1 John 1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
NKJV
He said "how can you say you have fellowship with God and be depressed? Its an oxymoron."

I just want you to know that i have been depressed for almost 3 years + a manic day here and there. But i still had the joy of the lord in my heart. Maybe i wasn't jumping up and down but i had the Joy of the Lord.
It really bothers me to hear people say things they have never lived.

I have been a Pastor for 25 yrs and i have never had a family member die nor have i ever performed a funeral. But you will never find me talking about a lost family member like i know how they feel, cause i dont.
I dont believe you can walk in darkness and have fellowship with the Lord, but i dont think depression can keep you from walking in the light.

Grace and Peace Pastor Dave...

We receive alot of letters from people leaving their Husbands because he is out of control. And letters from parents with crazy kids. It is always exciting to know you can offer some help but it is also discouraging when the patients will not take their Medicine. Listen, as bipolar people we can destroy the lives of those around us and still think we are normal... no big deal. We need to take our meds. It's so important to listen to those around us.
I know that we need to trust those around us even though it may seem their wrong. My wife is my adviser. She makes sure I am going the right way. With out her i would be headed in several different directions all a of them leading in destruction.

Let me know if you experience the same things...

Is There Help For Bipolar Christians?
We get alot of messages from people not taking there medications and wondering why they do what they do or wondering why they are feeling the way they do. We would like to encourage you to take your meds. I remember once a while back a Doctor was going through my website and wrote me saying He was blown away that I encouraged people to take their Meds. Anyway, if you are feeling Anxious or Depressed or Suicidal make sure you are doing what your Doctors are telling you even though it might not seem right, trust them.

The other thing is many are asking about ministry things. If God has called you then don't run from God. God knows your bipolar, He knows what you are going through and he knows how to deal with you as a child of God. However there are alot of Pastors that don't know how to approach the Bipolar-Christian. But in any case move forward into what ever area of ministry God has called you into and watch God bless you. On the other hand you will be operating in the flesh if God has not called you and it will be a struggle to continue. But if there is a peace and you feel God wants you in ministry then God will bless it.

So there is help for the bipolar Christian.....

Seeing things the way there suppose to be....

2009-11-25T14:46:00.006-05:00

I have to admit something to you....
i have been taking my medication now for about 5 years and we (my Wife and I) have found a healthy balance for me. I am rarely Manic. Praise the Lord....
I do fight Depression often though. I can go days feeling pretty good and then hit one bad one.

Help for Bipolar Christians....
The kind of help we need can only come from the Grace of God. You are never alone even though you may feel so distant from God... He is never far from you.

I know most of us hate taking the meds because we like feeling the highs that come without them. But I want everyone to know that I am at least seeing things the way there suppose to be. I used to be so mixed up. What i thought was a normal day by most was crazy. Talk about a multi funtioned brain. I could balance out 2 businesses and all there worries and a Pastoral ministry. Now things are what I call "vanilla". So normal I could scream...
But at least I'm not going crazy With all my Highs and Lows
Amen? Let me know what you think....

Recently I have been Diagnosed as a Bi-Polar Pastor;

Well... that explains everything! What do I do now?

How do I deal with this? Can a Christian be Bi-Polar?

Is there Biblical help for this Chemical Imbalance? What I thought was normal, I now find is quite the opposite. what I thought was fun is crazy and suddenly life is all twisted up. How do I deal with this as a man of God, as a family man, as a Pastor or am I? Was that just my Manic side?
