This book was quite interesting and I'd give it about a 7.5/10. It was a tad verbose with some rambling that was uninteresting at times. But the overall premise of the book was promising, the flow was good, and the ending was satisfying. A classic addition to any psych section of a home library; subcat mood disorders/mental health autobios

Pretty interesting when an esteemed professor of psychiatry finds herself dealing with the very mood disorders she teaches. Will she follow her own advice as a brilliant mind, or will she fall subject to the variable highs and lows of manic depression. It is a very interesting read for anyone who has been touched by a friend or family member with depression/mania

It's a funny story how I got into this book. I really enjoyed the Amazon show 'Modern love', through that I got to know about the podcast, then the episode by Terri and then finally her book. Bipolar disorder has interested me for various reasons and honestly it's a really good account of her experience. A vivid and overwhelming account of something that is so common yet unknown to people.

As for the book, I definitely liked it.
4/5🌟

I related to Jamison in many ways and am appreciative to her for writing the book. It isn't easy living with mental illness, but she wrote in such a way as to be accessible to all.

Cozy Wood Wick candle and tagged book is getting me through today. I have bipolar disorder and reading about someone else's experiences with the disorder is comforting to me, even though it isn't always pleasant.

SamAnne Candles and reading help with my depression. Hang in there and glad you are doing self-care. 1y
WorldsOkayestStepMom @SamAnne I'm really bad about self-care, and tbh I never considered candles and reading to be self-care, but it definitely is. Thanks for pointing it out to me! 💖 1y
AkashaVampie I agree, @SamAnne. I read to get out of my head. As my tattoo says, "I've lived a thousand lives!" 1y

WorldsOkayestStepMom @AkashaVampie I have 3 tattoos currently, but I'm wanting a bookish one and one with a cat. Maybe one with both books and a cat! 1y

Taking some time to read books from people who suffer from manic depressive/bipolar disorder. The author is highly intelligent but she writes in pleasant easy reading format and it‘s a lot like having a conversation with someone.

A beautiful and moving personal story of life with bipolar. This was a super quick read—I was totally engrossed in the author‘s life story. If you have any interest at all in mental health or just like fast paced memoirs…this is it!
