Hidden Valley Road: Inside the Mind of an American Family by Robert Kolker

informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

another of my favorite books, one that also got me back into reading. this is the one i recommend to everyone, it completely deepened the way i think about neurodivergency and gave me so much context to understand the history of the psychiatric industry and my own autism. truly a great book, a perfect blend of engaging stories/anecdotes and information, and a brilliant break down of the psychiatric industry’s failings and the way real people were swept up in the process of (mis)understanding schizophrenia. everyone with mental health issues or neurodivergencies should read it!!
