Lines of Madness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781738929405)

Lines of Madness is a poetic and photographic journey into the world of Kaden Pope, who has struggled with severe Mental Illness for most of their life. Everyday they live with the effects of psychosis, depression and self-harm and suicidal ideations that have been present since they were a pre-teen.

This collection of poetry was written while Kaden was in a range of emotional and mental states, ranging from being in the depths of psychosis to days where sanity and hope were within reach. Kaden initially wrote Lines of Madness for their own healing. Writing about these difficult topics was used as a cathartic way to cope with and fight through the fear and pain of living. Kaden is now publishing Lines of Madness and sharing it with the world in hopes that others can recognize that mental illness isn't the end of a life worth living, nor does it define the limits of what can be reached in the future.

Lines of Madness does talk bluntly and vividly about topics that may be triggering to you or others. Please check in with yourself to see if you're feeling safe to read about topics such as suicidal ideation/attempts, self harm, blood, psychosis, grief (loss of parent), depression, cutting and mental health hospitalizations before reading Lines of Madness.
