Synopsis

"Rosie is an inspiration" - Dua Lipa
"Full of humour and hope" - Hannah Murray, author of The Make-Believe
"Raw, yet surprisingly upbeat" - Sunday Times
_______________
An honest, moving and darkly funny memoir about bipolar disorder, mental health and finding hope in the chaos.
_______________
In 2018, model Rosie Viva experienced a psychotic episode at Stansted Airport that led to her arrest and the evacuation of the terminal. What followed was a diagnosis of bipolar disorder - and a life turned upside down.
In Completely Normal and Totally Fine, Rosie takes you inside the extreme highs of mania, the isolating lows of depression, and the long, complicated journey towards stability and recovery.
_______________
With humour, vulnerability and honesty, Rosie explores:
- Living with bipolar disorder and its impact on everyday life
- Mania, depression and psychosis
- Mental health, identity, relationships and love
- Diagnosis, recovery and challenging the stigma around mental illness
_______________
Whether you live with bipolar, support someone who does, or want to better understand mental health, this is a deeply personal memoir about survival, self-acceptance and hope. Funny, heartbreaking and ultimately uplifting, this book is a reminder that even when life feels anything but normal, you are not alone.
