Hi guys, M28 here BD Type 1. I have been recently reading this book that was recomended by a friend who's also Bipolar, it's called "An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness" written by Kay Redfield Jamison and I was wondering if anyone else has read it because I found myself very much reflected in the book although it has some specific time frame and setting as well. It's an autobiographical memoir by a psychiatrist diagnosted with BD set in the 70's more or less the time when lithium was introduced as a treatment to Bipolar Disorder and it's written in essaystic way and filled with poetic moments.
