2001 ANZJP Epilim
-
Virginia Woolf had breakdowns at ages 13. 22. 28 and 30. From 31 to 33 she was so ill that permanent insanity was feared. Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf? She was. On morning Virginia Woolf walked down to a river, filled her pockets with stones and drowned herself. She was 59. Suffering from manic depression all her life, she couldn't face the fact that she might have another episode. Her husband relates her worsening condition: "She talked almost without stopping for two or three days…gradually it became completely incoherent, a mere jumble of dissociated words." Woolf - writer, essayist and thinker was a member of the famous 'Bloomsbury Group.' This included the likes of John Maynard Keynes and EM Forster. They were aesthetes who had an obsession with beauty. Ironic, then, that Woolf's own view of the world was often so ugly. Because no specific treatment was available during her life, her illness ran its natural course. First breakdown at 13, then others at 22, 28 and 30. From 31 to 33 she was so ill that permanent insanity was feared. More than twenty years later she intimated that only words could take away the pain. The problem was she could no longer write. If Woolf had been alive today, however, she might not have had to endure the torture of psychotic mania and depression. Epilim may well have been the answer. Epilim is effective across various states of mania and is generally well tolerated. Importantly, the effects can be felt in as little as three days. So for someone suffering from bipolar disorder today, there's a lot less to be afraid of. Epilim.
