Helpful Score: 3

This book is difficult to read, because Hornbacher is so unflinchingly honest in her recollections. She describes her history with intense bipolar disorder: the terrifying highs and lows, the suicide attempts, the disappeared memories of hospitalization, she omits nothing. It might make the reader uncomfortable in its honesty, but I recommend it to everyone who has ever dealt with a mental disorder.
