sophmenke's review against another edition

DID NOT FINISH: 51%

Unfortunately this book was just not for me. While it was interesting at points I continuously found myself wishing I was reading a different book, which really just speaks to my lack of interest in most nonfiction/memoirs. I might try to pick this book up again in the future, but this just wasn't the right time. 

Excellent

Beautifully written and narrated! Deeply personal and extraordinarily candid. 

One note is that this was written in the 90s when approaches to psychiatric diagnoses and treatments were fairly different than today. Fascinating to take a first account look at that time through the author's lens.
