OMG!
Have you read this book?
Several people on the bip blogs have mentioned that I should read it.
Well, I finally got it, and it is not only a very scholarly and "outside looking in" approach to being bipolar, but it's also an amazing story!
I'm not yet finished, but I had so many "THAT'S ME" moments, that I lost count. One reviewer states that "Kay Redfield Jamison - the author who is also a psychiatrist - skillfully illustrates the creativity so often associated with mental illness." So true.
I've always felt that my mental issues were the result of my superior intelligence and creativity :-)
She touches on remission in the book, too.
It's a great read if you have any mental challenges, and an insight into our lives if you're close to someone who does.
Get here at Amazon.
