Annie, you have to interact and talk to people; T, PDoc, hospital people. There aren't any "textbooks" that can help us cope better that all we have to do is read.

If you just want coping skills though, have you thought about trying online counseling? http://www.metanoia.org/ That way you could just e-mail. I've done that a couple of times.

Where do you live, how old are you? There are lots of psychiatric hospitals that have inpatient programs:
