A Memoir of Love and Madness: Living with Bipolar Disorder
by Rahla Xenopoulos
In 1997, Rahla Xenopoulos was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. As a result of this devastating diagnosis, she sought education on her affliction. Although she found an abundance of literature on various mental illnesses, none of it seemed applicable to her. This situation inspired her to write a book chronicling her ongoing efforts to come to terms with a disease that is, in effect, a life sentence: from her upbringing in an eccentric, loving Jewish family to her struggle with bulimia, anorexia and self-mutilation, her attempts at suicide, finding true love and, finally, the crazy, utterly unpredictable experience of giving birth to triplets.
This is not a self-help book, or a medical guide. Reading this book will not cure anyone; bipolar disorder is a chronic illness. But it did help Rahla as it will countless others to understand the rhythm in the cacophony of this condition.
Book Condition: Fairly good. Some age marks inside. Great reading copy.
