Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah Cahalan

informative inspiring fast-paced

a one in a million story about a medical mystery in the right place at the right time. i appreciated the author’s constant reminder that most are not lucky enough to be listened to and taken seriously, let alone diagnosed and treated. some parts in here felt like they were teetering the “mental illness isn’t real” line but i’m giving them a pass since it was the early 2010s
