This book is a must read for anyone who has a desire to understand what it must be like to experience mental illness, and by increasing our understanding of what it is like as a family member or friend of someone suffering from the debilitating impairments that affect our everyday life. The book cites real life stories from the author that span his years of experience; Perry Klein has a writing style that brings to light his years of first hand experiences in the field as a professional Mental Health Counselor, and he has the ability to break down very complicated issues and Mental Disorders into everyday language that is at times even humorous. Mental illness has never been written about in this way before.
