An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness by Kay Redfield Jamison

littleseal's review against another edition

This has been on my to-read list for years, both as a therapist and a daughter of a mother who has bipolar disorder. 

Thank you for being vulnerable. Obviously some of the information Kay wrote is outdated now, but it's still a very intense look into psychology during the 70s/80s, as well as someone struggling with what was then-called manic-depressive disorder.
