Other symptoms include various forms of self-mutilation, excesses with alcohol, drugs, and sex. Symptoms include weight issues (anorexia, binge and purging), runaway money issues and excessive spending sprees, memory loss, manic highs and depressive lows, and mixed episodes which can lead to suicide. It is a candid, blunt view of life for a person afflicted with bipolar I, the more severe of the two forms of bipolar disorder. Madness is the memoir of a woman suffering from bipolar disorder and the journey she took to get to where she is today. ![]() ![]() Book review: Marya Hornbacher's *Madness: A Bipolar Life*Ĭlick here to read reviewer Heather Darcy's take on Madness: A Bipolar Life. ![]()
