Description
by Gail M. Glotzer (Author)
Mania and Other Stories is a collection of short stories involving life as a sufferer of mental illness. It is a journey of self-discovery. Unlike other such journals, this is not a scientific regurgitation of bipolar disorder facts, but rather shares realistic day to day experiences. In the book, I accurately describe times spent in hospitals, nursing homes, and homelessness.
I try to capture life on the road and with acquaintances met along the way. There are a number of stories of romantic encounters both private and in facilities that form of being together in the confines of wards and in manic situations.
Living the life of mental illness can be isolating and discouraging. This book is meant to provide hope and positivity. Mania and Other Stories is about strength. Inner strength.
Many of these stories are universal. Together there is hope for the future. Mania is also about individuality and resilience. This book is meant to be a catalyst for other studies of bipolar disorder and homelessness. It is a worldwide epidemic and so little is understood.
