The rapids : ways of looking at mania

Twyford-Moore, Sam (author.).

Summary: "A personal and cultural history of manic depression, The Rapids explores how individuals with manic depression can mediate their identities, sense of agency, responsibility, and social being in a world saturated by negative media. Using a mixture of reflections on the self, literary and cinematic representations of mania, and media coverage of celebrities with mania such as Kanye West, Carrie Fisher, and Spalding Gray, the author discusses what it means to live with a diagnosis of 'bipolarity' in contemporary society."--
