Does My Wall Have A Window?: Living a Hellish Nightmare with Undiagnosed Bipolar Disorder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228809296)

One man's 'normal' may be another man's 'nighmare'. As if living with abusive parents wasn't bad enough, I was a sickly child who was bullied in the neighbourhood and at school while living a hellish nightmare with undiagnosed bipolar disorder. If you know anything about this disease, you know the rollercoaster ride it can take a person on. Now, picture that person on the same rollercoaster ride without medication, without therapy, without guidance or direction and without the understanding of his family, friends, employers, and co-workers. To be honest, there are many times when I thought that I was going crazy. Does My Wall Have a Window explains the multi-facets of the disorder, how you may know if you are a fellow sufferer, how to help yourself and others. You'll also be given a glipse into my life as I unfold my hellish nightmare from the age of 5 on through to 59, and how I conducted myself through the years the best I could with actions I thought were 'normal', but congruent with the disorder and how the 'experts' in their field wouldn't listen to my dilema to think outside the box. This autobiography is educational, humorous, somewhat of an eyeopener, and hopefully helpful all at the same time. Perhaps you know someone suffering from bipolar disorder and wonder if their living a 'hellish nightmare' as well? I can assure you, they are and this might give you some insight as to how you can aide them in their torment.
