Life As A Roller Coaster: The Mayhem of Bipolar
Having found her voice, Liz shares her real-life story in a refreshingly open style born out of a burning desire to help people to cope in our ever-challenging world. From being bullied at an early age, her parents’ divorce, coping with exams, jealousy, dealing with abusive relationships both mentally and physically through to becoming admitted to a psychiatric unit in her earlythirties and being given a Bipolar diagnosis. Liz remains remarkably positive even though she has been through extremely challenging times with her psychotic episodes and endeavours now to educate people to have the courage to speak out and share their experiences. Her family, partner, and ex-manager have also contributed their insights into Liz’s journey and how the diagnosis of Bipolar affected them in a different way. This truly is an inspirational story full of lows and highs and demonstrates that no matter what you face in life you can and will get through it.

This was a brilliant book. A really honest account of a bipolar journey from the perspective of patient, sister and mum; before, in hospital and beyond. Very thought provoking and a true, raw insight in to the condition and impact on the lives of those with bipolar and their loved ones. Liz tells an incredible story of recovery and relapse and the journey of managing the condition and her life living with bipolar. A must read for anyone wanting to understand more about the condition.
