Madness: A Bipolar Life by Marya Hornbacher

challenging dark emotional tense fast-paced

3.0

I got almost halfway through this book. In all honesty it triggered my own anxiety from reading the fast, overwhelming and anxious thoughts of the author.  When she is in a depressed cycle I can read it no problem but when she is in a manic cycle I struggle because the thoughts are too fast and disjointed. It makes me feel wound up to read these parts and I’m not enjoying reading it for that reason and though I have not finished it I have learned more about bipolar from it.  I think it is a good book on the topic but not for me.
