Ceri Rose - 09 Apr, 2021

A sensitive and informative book with personal descriptions of severe mental illness. Each account is short and takes us on each person’s journey: often involving psychosis; dealing with medication; and trying to get your life back on track. I found the experiences were poignant, and told without self-pity. A powerful book that would help anyone to understand conditions like bipolar and schizophrenia. The art and poems are uplifting too.

An honest and illuminating book about severe mental illness. Many of the contributers have been sectioned. All live with chronic illness and describe the effects poignantly and without self-pity. One of the best insights into living with mental illness that I have read with uplifting illustrations and poetry.
