A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Jeff chronicles his life from birth until present day with riveting detail; traces of affective Bipolar Disorder II appeared even before age 12. Undiagnosed with Clinical Depression until 1986, 10 years later he was properly diagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder in 1996. But only after suffering total loss-including his first family due to a horrendous Bipolar I episode. In his fast-paced tale, Jeff's faith is repeatedly tested as schooling, engineering and management career, and family are ripped apart by his "quicksilver illness". Bipolar Disorder robs Jeff of his plans, dreams, goals and hobbies as his manic episodes invariably plummet into suicidal depression. It takes Jeff 10 years, 10 hospitalizations and 6 psychiatrists to obtain a proper diagnosis, and 3 years more to concoct an effective pharmaceutical cocktail of 5 psychotropic medications. Jeff's PG-13 work brings the latest information, understanding, hope, help and healing to everyone affected by bipolar and depressive mood disorders. Helpful resources are included in his book. Boy, Interrupted: My Magical Misery Tour answers questions and encourages others in successfully surviving and navigating their way through Bipolar Hell. Jeff is an advocate and researcher for mental health, and is a DBSA Northwest Arkansas Chapter peer facilitator for 2 Bipolar Support Groups in Bella Vista and Rogers.
