This book tore me from the inside out and exposed me completely. I've had my eye on this read for a while, and I picked it up at the most perfect time, as I didn't realize just how much I would resonate with Mailhot's disease and how it disrupts her life. Just being diagnosed with Bipolar I had me spiraling for a little while, and though Mailhot was diagnosed with Bipolar II, I still felt every single symptom she detailed deep to my core. I want to hold her. I want to read everything she writes. I want to re-read this when I feel alone in my disease. I want more of her language, her writing style. Just utter perfection.
Graphic: Suicide attempt and Suicidal thoughts
