I Am Not Walczyk (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781519630780)

"I have bipolar disorder... it scares the hell out of me. My illness makes me a victim of my own mind... There is no logic to it; no rhyme nor reason... I lose faith that I'll ever be happy again." -Peter Walczyk Two years have passed since Peter Walczyk returned to his hometown of Cole Island, Maine, to distance himself from his estranged wife, his career, and the paparazzi. And while Walczyk has gotten treatment, his manic depression is still not under control. Faced with violent suicidal urges and crippling depression, Walczyk fears he may never be the man he used to be. As Walczyk's friends struggle to be of assistance to him, they find themselves facing their own touchy situations: Hannah's feelings for a former flame have rekindled and Vic's father has returned home, requiring around the clock care. When Walczyk meets feisty high school history teacher Joann Benes, his erratic moods seem to lighten. But should they attempt a relationship, given the unpredictable nature of his bipolar disorder and the seriousness of her battle with breast cancer?
