Reading Recommendations

For those of you who are afraid of the stigma of Bipolar there have been some great books come out that will question your ideas of keeping this disorder a secret and they are just worth the read.

1) An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness by Kay Redfield Jamison

2) Nothing Was the Same by Kay Redfield Jamison

3) Touched with Fire: Manic-Depressive Illness and the Artistic Temperament by Kay Redfield Jamison

As you can see I'm a fan of Miss Jamison's and not only because she suffered from Mania and Depression, but because she also holds a position co-running the program at John Hopkins University for Mental Illness. She has disclosed her disorder and used it as a platform to change people's lives.
