Manic: A Memoir

I read a lot of (auto)biographies of people with bi polar disorder, I think I've said before that in times of crisis Christians turn to the Bible, and I turn to medical texts etc.
The problem I have with most of them is that the authors are so much more extreme than I am - if that makes sense - I have trouble identifying with them.
I jsut finished reading Manic: A Memoir by Terri Cheney. And this one has hit it on the head for me. I will go through it later and find some quotes that hit so close, that I understood so well that I couldn't believe it.
Here's a video:

and here's her website

Good job Terri. Well done.
