I'm Not Crazy Just Bipolar review and best price

I'm Not Crazy Just Bipolar description

Just as a photographer might shoot a photo through a colored lens, Wendy Williamson skillfully holds up the filter of mania and depression for her reader to peer through. With heart-wrenching honesty and humor, she shows the effects of bipolar disorder on the mind, body and soul of those who suffer from it. Despite Wendy's struggles, this is a not a book that brings the reader down, rather a road map for wellness and a vastly informative, yet entertaining, guided tour of bipolar disorder for those who don't understand it. With her perceptive self-awareness, the author is equal parts comedienne and educator, and she tells the unbelievable highs and lows of her story with a clear, grounded candor.

Reviews:

"The author achieves something difficult in a memoir: she remembers
feelings from a period of her life, while still providing distance and
perspective. Williamson's analysis of the mental health field and mental
health professionals is insightful without being preachy, and she
presents her story with grace and humor." -Publisher's Weekly

"..skillfully weaves together several levels of a young woman's life... [it] is, like its
title, an assertion that a life touched by bipolar disorder is still a
life with its own logic. The book does a great job at describing that
logic." -The Advocate (NAMI)
