Read the first chapter of my autobiography on living with manic depression entitled "A CAn Of Madness" for free at www.chipmunkapublishing.com The book is sponsored by the mental health charity Mind. As a resident of Lambeth i am particularly interested in getting the message across to people in the borough. Kathy has very kindly let me know about this forum. On the website there are details of a charity i am helping to set up which encourages people who have been prejudiced against to write about their experiences. There are also reviews from the press and the public on "A Can Of Madness." Everyone who reads the book is either comforted by it (as they are a mental health user or are a friend or relative of one) or changes their perception of people with mental health problems as a result of using it. The book is breaking down stereotypes and prejudices. It is uncompromising, honest and absorbing.(posted 8025 days ago)You can order a copy by sending a cheque for £12.00 made payable to chipmunkapublishing and send it to:
