While You Were Out: An Intimate Family Portrait of Mental Illness in an Era of Silence by Meg Kissinger
4.5
"To live in this world, you must be able to do three things:
To love what is mortal, to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it, and when the time comes to let it go, to let it go."
Powerful, candid and filled with surprising humor, this is the story of one family’s love and resilience in face of great loss. The first part is a detailed and thorough exploration of Kissinger Family – and the second part focuses on our flawed mental health system, terrible public policy (only to get worse currently in my opinion) and research surrounding mental health and the care of mental health.
