I'm Not Crazy Just Bipolar

The book "Mania and Depression" by Wendy Williamson is a heart-wrenching, yet humorous memoir that provides an unflinching look into the effects of bipolar disorder on the mind, body, and soul.

With Publisher's Weekly praising her "direct and thankfully not given to flowery language or circumspectness about her condition," Williamson skillfully weaves together a young woman's life, offering insightful analysis of the mental health field and professionals without being preachy.

The Advocate notes that the book is "an assertion that a life touched by bipolar disorder is still a life with its own logic," and does an excellent job at describing that logic.

This powerful memoir will leave readers with a newfound appreciation for those affected by mental illness, and a deeper understanding of the complexities of the human experience.
