John's Book Is Out

John McManamy's new book, Living Well with Depression and Bipolar Disorder, is being officially released today. As regular readers know, I am damn enthusiastic about the book—not only is it thorough and informative about how we live with the dread shit we've got, it's the first book of its kind written by a fellow patient. One of our own stepping into what's considered the exlusive preserve of docs and therapists. Congratulations to John.

It's available, online at least, at amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com and so on. It's about $11 on amazon.com. Order it. I did.

I am going to walk into my local B & Noble and request a copy.

If it's only available online, at least then the chances of someone hearing me ask for this book will spread the word, and the clerks will too...

Happy birthday to the first book of John McManamy!
Happy birthday to you.
You are born into a world dark with ignorance.
You lay bare all the theories, the doctors, the treatments and more.
Your words sparkle and illuminate the path to living well with manic depression.
May copies of you be ordered, purchased, loaned, borrowed, gifted, traded, stolen...
May you be read often and well!

Best wishes,
Moira

I alway wish outsiders could understand the animal I have chained inside of me.Mabey now they can begin to unndestand the pain we suffer everyday.Hopefully afew will see it's not just simple depression we suffer from.
