A Bipolar Life Well-Lived

by Samantha Lewis - £9.99  Austin Macauley Publishers (2024)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781035847181 | ISBN 10: 1035847183

It never dawned on me that I was getting ill, but what was happening to me was very real. Living in a world of make-believe, I was convinced my imaginary visions were genuine. I had delusions of grandeur, thinking I was all-powerful and the centre of everything. But I was not a monster; I was a lost soul.
 
My story involves a struggle with mania and depression in the context of my life in England and France. How, despite my handicap, I held down a job abroad for 8 years and how, after 8 years of marriage to a Frenchman, I supported my daughter as a single parent.
 
My memoir gives insight into living with mental illness. It is an autobiography concerned with memories of childhood, adolescence and adulthood.
