My name is Annett Oehlschl\u00e4ger. At the age of 47, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and at first I didn’t understand what that meant. I had never heard the term before.<\/p>\n
Between the ages of 47 and 54, I was in various psychiatric clinics a total of 24 times. That was a total of 571 hospital days. During this time, I learned very intensively as a patient how our highly developed medicineto deals with mental illness. This treatment consists primarily of psychotropic drugs and psychotherapy. Of course, these have their place. I needed the medication to be able to undergo therapy and the psychotherapy to learn to accept my illness. After eight years, I had done everything the system offered me, became more stable, but not the way I wanted to. I felt I was the system couldn’t offer my any more and looked for other ways.<\/p>\n

More by chance, I discovered that there are other ways to strengthen the psyche than the ones I had previously known. Namely, by giving my body everything it needs for a stable mood and good drive. So I studied my illness even more intensively, read over 200 books and scientific studies, exchanged ideas with experts in various fields and found many building blocks of stability that I can determine and influence myself. This is how I found my way out of the labyrinth to lasting stability.<\/p>\n
I have written down my knowledge in two books because there has never been such a summary before. My first book is entitled “Stability you can eat!?”<\/a>and shows what options patients have to escape the vicious cycle of mania and depression. My second book is called “Stability as a way of life”<\/a><\/strong> and deals more with the “psychiatric system” and the use of psychotropic drugs. I also explain the deeper connections between brain health and our mood. <\/span>I also advise sufferers and give talks at a bipolar day clinic in Berlin and have developed a 13-hour online seminar<\/a> in which I share my knowledge in an understandable and structured way.<\/p>\n As you can see, it is important to me to share my personal experiences as a patient and my accumulated knowledge with you, so that you too can find a way to live well with the disease. I therefore see myself as a “guide” (in German “Pilot”), so that you too can go from being affected to being an expert.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/PgI3shyzgzg” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About meMy name is Annett Oehlschl\u00e4ger.
