Publisher's Summary

This book offers first-person accounts of the experience of psychosis from the inside and the outside, through the eyes of two doctors, one of whom has experienced psychosis and both of whom have worked for decades in the field of psychiatry.

Underpinned by rigorous academic analysis using an evocative duo-ethnographic approach, the book explores the cultural and subcultural influences from childhood onwards—both traumatic and resilience-building—that have shaped their lives. Both authors reflect on strategies they learned early in life for dealing with challenges, each managing to function at a high level while avoiding awareness of their vulnerability.

Written in the form of two interacting memoirs, this book is of great interest to researchers, clinicians, and practicing psychologists, as well as a general audience with interest in psychosis.

Covered it all.

I enjoyed the life long events of the authors interesting lives, relationships and trials and tribulations. I particularly like the lived experience of mental health provided by both the authors. It open my eyes to to many and varied extreme states that humans experience. I would recommend this book to others with loved ones who have had psychosis, particularly those craving more understanding and hope.
