This book was a real eye opener for me and the sufferers of Bi-polar disorder. I have a friend that was recently diagnoses. So I got this book to learn a little bit more about it. After I got this book I recommend it to her because in it was so much of her childhood she couldn't explain that it was really therapeutic to her to read this and know she wasn't alone or strange. The book is a quick and easy read. It's one of those that once you stop you never want to put it down and if your like me and read before bed you end up all night reading it!

Terri Cheney is a Smart attorney with manic depression. She lets you into her world - good, bad and the ugly - on how she copes with her illness. Very engaging, interesting, disturbing...good read!
