As an individual who is also bipolar, I really enjoyed this book a lot. Of course, every journey is different, but it was interesting hearing her’s, and was very relatable. Really resourceful in explaining the intricacies of bipolar, as well as providing suggestions of other helpful resources. I highly recommend everyone read this to gain a better understanding, not just folks with bipolar. I think another plus is that being in graphic novel/graphic memoir form may make it more accessible to individuals who may not be able to get into more traditional books out there regarding the illness.
