Goodreads asked Deborah L. Fruchey:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Deborah L. Fruchey I am quite certain I have answered this before...the mystery in my life for many years was what was wrong with my behavior, which was volatile and unpredictable in unpleasant ways. At the age of 23, I discovered that the answer was mental illness, and then the mystery became what medicine could help me. It took eight years for us to eventually find a cocktail of five medicines that could be combined to give me stable emotional grounding, and of course much therapy and self-examination was necessary, and several hospitalizations. The mind itself is very mysterious, as we all know, and how to treat it when there is brain disease is equally so!
