I loved this book. Even though a few small passages felt long and lost my attention (I was listening to the audio book) I enjoyed most of the book very much. It is well writen and I felt a lot of sadness for the author, but also for every person living with mental illness. So much suffering must feel unbearable and needs professional and competent people to help.
