It is written by someone who deals with it everyday, with insight, struggles, and stories from fighting with most of it everyday. I open up and tell you what it's like for me and what helps.

For centuries, mental and physical health have been divided and disorders of the mind and body have been treated as if they were poles apart. This deep-rooted division has shaped medicine, psychiatry, and society. But what if this mind/body split is not only outdated - but dangerously misleading? In this groundbreaking follow-up to his bestselling The Inflamed Mind, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Edward Bullmore challenges one of medicine's most enduring assumptions.

Sandra Allen did not know their uncle Bob very well. As a child, Sandy had been told Bob was “crazy”, that he had spent time in mental hospitals while growing up in Berkeley in the '60s and '70s. But Bob had lived a hermetic life in a remote part of California for longer than Sandy had been alive, and what little Sandy knew of him came from rare family reunions or odd, infrequent phone calls. Then in 2009, Bob mailed Sandy his autobiography.

Mud Flower: Surviving Schizophrenia and Suicide Through Art shows the perspective of a person who has a serious mental illness, who survives extreme treatments, whose family and the health system have given up on, but who defies all expectations and common beliefs of what is possible.

This memoir focuses on the everyday struggles a human being encounters while constantly hearing voices telling him or her what they should and shouldn’t be doing. Matt, the main character in this book—and the author, Matthew Littlechild—must battle each and every day to survive. Chronic alcoholism and drug-taking—either of which would cause someone without this man's mental health issues to struggle to survive—severely hamper his chances at a normal life. But he is fortunate in that he meets Samantha. She is his savior, Samantha, and he hangs on to her for dear life!

"Esquizo" és, més que un audiollibre, un altaveu per dónar la paraula a aquells que normalment no la tenen. L'audiollibre recull quinze testimonis reals d’esquizofrènics i familiars que conviuem amb la malaltia, quinze relats que parlen del rebuig social de la malaltia, del dolor i el neguit que pateixen els que la viuen dia a dia. En Ricard Ruiz Garzón fa una tasca importantíssima per allunyar prejudicis i contribuir a la desaparició de l’estigma que s’associa amb aquesta malaltia i ho fa donant veu als propis personatges d’aquesta història.

Being diagnosed with bipolar disorder was like losing my flight plan. It was as if my destination and alternate airports had disappeared. My engines were on fire during the height of my first full-blown manic episode and I was certain that a crash was imminent. An emergency was declared. To my surprise I learned that I had on board with me the love and support of family and friends. In the end I landed safe and sound, just not where I had intended. I was never able to make a career out of flying. Having worked four commercial pilot jobs as a flight instructor and charter pilot, I now know that those years were the beginning of unrecognized signs and symptoms of bipolar disorder. I was too restless to stay at one job long enough to be truly prepared for the next.
