'I grabbed my father's hand and looked up at him through a sudden flood of tears. "Daddy, I've lost control." I whispered.'From age 16 Terri struggled with manic depression and there seemed to be no treatment, no help. A vicious eating disorder that drove Terri to consume everything in the house - including baking soda - was the start of a journey that led a frightened young woman on the cusp of a brilliant career to multiple suicide attempts, nights in jail, broken jobs and ruined friendships. Manic is both harrowing yet hopeful, and does not simply explain manic depression - it takes us in its grasp and does not leg go. ISBN:9780007267071
