MANIA

In Mania, I chronicle my struggle with mental illness and my transformation from middle-class soccer mom to federal inmate, and how I try to put my life back together afterward.

 

This is a must-read for anyone who has suffered from a mental disorder or knows someone who has. Follow me from the world of international au pairs to a federal court system in which mental illness is chargeable and punishable as a crime. It's a story of redemption and how I found unlikely friends in the strange world behind bars.
