One of the best books about living with bp to date!!!!
I read this fabulous, easy-to-read, riveting book in one night, when I was hypomanic and couldn't sleep, and I wanted to be on the computer, but I knew that reading a book was better for me...reading Paul Jones' story was like a breath of fresh air. He truly gets it, on all sorts of levels, and the writing is superb & profound. I just bought it over the weekend at Borders - it was published by Perigree in 2008. "The Up and Down Life" was written by Paul E. Jones, (taken from from the back of the book) a "popular stand-up comedian and motivational speaker who was diagnosed with bipolar disorderin 2003. His mission and passion in life is to educate people who suffer from bipolar and those who treat and love them. He lives with his wife and three children in Cinncinnati, Ohio.
