An Unquiet Mind, by Kay Redfield Jamison, is the first book about bipolar that helped me not to feel so alone. The author, a psychiatrist, tells the story of her descent into madness and her return from it’s depths. This memoir is gripping, a realistic view of what bipolar disorder looks like from the inside. If you don’t have time to read many books about depression, I highly recommend that you choose this as one of the first. I recommend it to anyone I know that is newly diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and I bought copies for several family members to read so that they could get a first hand view of what it’s like to live with this disease.
