What They're Saying About
I'm Not Crazy Just Bipolar:
"Williamson's analysis of the
mental health field and mental health professionals is insightful
without being preachy, and she presents her story with grace and humor."
- Publishers Weekly
"skillfully weaves together several levels of a young woman's life...[it] is, like its title, an assertion that a life touched by bipolar disorder is still a life with its own logic. The book does a great job at describing that logic."
-The Advocate, National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)

About the Book
Just
as a photographer might shoot a photo through a colored lens, Wendy
Williamson skillfully holds up the filter of mania and depression for
her reader to peer through. With heart-wrenching honesty and humor, she
shows the effects of bipolar disorder on the mind, body and soul of
those who suffer from it.
Despite
Wendy’s struggles, this is a not a book that brings the reader down,
rather a road map for wellness and a vastly informative, yet
entertaining, guided tour of bipolar disorder for those who don’t
understand it. With her perceptive self-awareness, the author is equal
parts comedienne and educator, and she tells the unbelievable highs and
lows of her story with a clear, grounded candor.
