Diana Grippo's Bipolar Chronicles: From Mad to Metaphysical is a memoir about going crazy and coming out the other side. Diana Grippo deals with hallucinations, delusions, depression, and substance abuse. She gets better only to relapse, and this cycle continues for many years. She lives on the streets and goes in and out of hospitals. Ultimately, Diana Grippo heals, using a spiritual practice which includes The Twelve Steps, music therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She becomes a high school teacher, a Founder and Executive Director, and ultimately works for Apple Against all odds, she survives. She tells us how she does it and offers hope to those who suffer and insight to family members. Moving, harrowing, and ultimately uplifting, Bipolar Chronicles: From Mad to Metaphysical is a classic testimony to the ravages of mental illness and the power of perseverance and courage.
