Description

‘From Heights to Depths and Somewhere in Between’ is Linda Stoneman’s first publication. A true, personal and factual account of some of Linda’s life experiences, some of which she believes, triggered her bipolar disorder. Her book starts with a poem she wrote when she was in a high phase of a bipolar episode. In her introduction she discusses ‘stress’ and the affects of this on our bodies and minds.

Linda goes onto reflect on her life so far, highlighted by various personal experiences being a mental health patient. Vivid thoughts of what was going on in her head when psychotic to feelings of deepest despair when depressed. An insider’s view of a mental health ward; and the alternative of being treated at home by the Crisis and Treatment team. (CATT).

This book will appeal to fellow sufferers to compare experiences, or to someone who has no insight into bipolar but wants to learn more.
