Book excerpt: NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING CHLOË GRACE MORETZ A “captivating” (The New York Times Book Review), award-winning memoir and instant New York Times bestseller that goes far beyond its riveting medical mystery, Brain on Fire is a powerful account of one woman’s struggle to recapture her identity. When twenty-four-year-old Susannah Cahalan woke up alone in a hospital room, strapped to her bed and unable to move or speak, she had no memory of how she’d gotten there. Days earlier, she had been on the threshold of a new, adult life: at the beginning of her first serious relationship and a promising career at a major New York newspaper. Now she was labeled as violent, psychotic, a flight risk. What happened? In an “unforgettable” (Elle), “stunningly brave” (NPR), and breathtaking narrative, Susannah tells the astonishing true story of her descent into madness, her family’s inspiring faith in her, and the lifesaving diagnosis that almost didn’t happen. “A fascinating look at the disease that…could have cost this vibrant, vital young woman her life” (People), Brain on Fire is an unforgettable exploration of memory and identity, faith and love, and a profoundly compelling tale of survival and perseverance.

This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My father was a cold-blooded killer. He made me his confidante as he planned and committed several murders. Dad enjoyed telling me about his crimes. He then used me to help him destroy evidence when he sensed I might go to the police and turn him in. I spent years burying this secret so that it would never see the light of day. Secrets became my chosen method of dealing with unwelcome, painful and shameful experiences. I discovered the hard way that hiding from one's past does not work. My secrets, like my Dad, took me to hell and nearly killed me. Much to my surprise, this turned out to be a gift. I discovered that no matter how dark or how painful an experience may be, there is always A Miracle that can be found in the madness. We too often view misfortune as an attack, an intrusion in life, and see ourselves as victims. In an odd twist of irony, these unforgivable experiences in life actually hold the key to our freedom from suffering. The story, and process outlined in THE MIRACLE IN THE MADNESS reveals exactly how to transform this misery into a priceless gift. - - - - Author and Inspirational Speaker TRAVIS VINING shares his experience from the real-life horrors of learning his own father was a serial killer. Travis details the grueling mental, physical and emotional journey that eventually became the springboard to a stunning transformation.

Book excerpt: After a decade of caring for crazy and keeping her mother’s mental illness a secret from the outside world, twenty-year-old Paolina Milana longs for just one year free from the madness of her home. When she gets the chance to go to an out-of-state school, she takes it, but her family won’t leave her be. Letter after letter arrives, constantly reminding her of the insanity rooted in her family tree. Even worse, the voices in her own head whisper words she’s not sure are normal. “Please don’t make me be like Mamma,” she prays to a God she’s not sure is listening. The unexpected death of her father soon after she returns home leaves Paolina in shock—and in charge of her paranoid schizophrenic mother. But it isn’t until she is twenty-seven and her sister two years her junior explodes in a psychotic episode and, just like Mamma, is diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and must be committed, that Paolina descends into her own despair, nearly losing herself to the darkness. Poignant and impactful, Committed is one woman’s story of resilience as she struggles to stay sane despite the madness that surrounds her.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Book Awards 2016 finalist for literary fiction The End of Miracles is a twisting, haunting story about the drastic consequences of a frustrated obsession. A woman with a complex past wants nothing more than to become a mother, but struggles with infertility and miscarriage. She is temporarily comforted by a wish-fulfilling false pregnancy, but when reality inevitably dashes that fantasy, she falls into a depression so deep she must be hospitalized. The sometimes-turbulent environment of the psychiatry unit rattles her and makes her fear for her sanity, and she flees. Outside, she impulsively commits a startling act with harrowing consequences for herself and others. This emotionally gripping novel is a suspenseful journey across the blurred boundaries between sanity and madness, depression and healing.

Book excerpt: New Foreword by Irvine Welsh. In Before We Was We Madness tell us how they became them. A story of seven originals, whose collective graft, energy and talent took them from the sweaty depths of the Hope and Anchor's basement to the Top of the Pops studio. In their own words they each look back on shared adventures. Playing music together, riding freight trains, spraying graffiti and stealing records. Walking in one another's footsteps by day and rising up through the city's exploding pub music scene by night. Before We Was We is irreverent, funny and full of character. Just like them.

Download or read book Money, Marriage, and Madness written by Kim E. Nielsen and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anna Ott died in the Wisconsin State Hospital for the Insane in 1893. She had enjoyed status and financial success first as a physician's wife and then as the only female doctor in Madison. Throughout her first marriage, attempts to divorce her abusive second husband, and twenty years of institutionalization, Ott determinedly shaped her own life. Kim E. Nielsen explores a life at once irregular and unexceptional. Historical and institutional structures, like her whiteness and laws that liberalized divorce and women's ability to control their property, opened up uncommon possibilities for Ott. Other structures, from domestic violence in the home to rampant sexism and ableism outside of it, remained a part of even affluent women's lives. Money, Marriage, and Madness tells a forgotten story of how the legal and medical cultures of the time shaped one woman—and what her life tells us about power and society in nineteenth century America.

Book excerpt: This is one of the wisest books I've read in years... —New York Times Book Review No writer I know of comes close to even trying to articulate the weird magic of poetry as Ruefle does. She acknowledges and celebrates in the odd mystery and mysticism of the act—the fact that poetry must both guard and reveal, hint at and pull back... Also, and maybe most crucially, Ruefle’s work is never once stuffy or overdone: she writes this stuff with a level of seriousness-as-play that’s vital and welcome, that doesn’t make writing poetry sound anything but wild, strange, life-enlargening fun. -The Kenyon Review Profound, unpredictable, charming, and outright funny...These informal talks have far more staying power and verve than most of their kind. Readers may come away dazzled, as well as amused... —Publishers Weekly This is a book not just for poets but for anyone interested in the human heart, the inner-life, the breath exhaling a completion of an idea that will make you feel changed in some way. This is a desert island book. —Matthew Dickman The accomplished poet is humorous and self-deprecating in this collection of illuminating essays on poetry, aesthetics and literature... —San Francisco Examiner Over the course of fifteen years, Mary Ruefle delivered a lecture every six months to a group of poetry graduate students. Collected here for the first time, these lectures include "Poetry and the Moon," "Someone Reading a Book Is a Sign of Order in the World," and "Lectures I Will Never Give." Intellectually virtuosic, instructive, and experiential, Madness, Rack, and Honey resists definition, demanding instead an utter—and utterly pleasurable—immersion. Finalist for the 2012 National Book Critics Circle Award. Mary Ruefle has published more than a dozen books of poetry, prose, and erasures. She lives in Vermont.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge guides readers through a simple daily practice that will help them find the connection to God and small moments of peace during busy days that they crave. We live in world filled with endless distractions, a news cycle that never takes a break, and the constant demands of daily life such as work, family, friends, and community. Most people find themselves feeling like there's no margin, no time to sit and reflect on what matters most or connect with God, and even though they desperately crave a few minutes of peace, they don't know how to slow down or change course. John Eldredge has seen and felt the toll that constant busyness has, and he created the wildly successful One Minute Pause app that 180,000 users have a described as a "rescue" during difficult times. Now, in The One Minute Pause Journal, he goes a step further and helps readers begin a daily habit of intentional stopping and reflecting that has the potential to change the course of their lives and their relationship with their heavenly Father. This ninety-day guided journal includes an extended introduction that will help explain the practice, both theologically and practically, so that readers can get the most out of the experience and truly understand how it works. Each entry features a regular set of morning and evening prompts, scripture, prayers, and journaling space that will encourage readers to release everything to God and restore their union with him; give guidance on how to invite God more fully into our lives; and provide space to reflect on daily life and prioritize what matters most. The One Minute Pause Journal offers a simple daily practice that will help readers connect with God and find those small moments to reflect and relax.

Download or read book The Madness Within written by Terri L. Whitley and published by . This book was released on 2006-10-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I awoke from a dream, I realized the importance of my book to its readers. I also realized what makes this book different from other books that have tried to re-create the essence of "The Madness Within". "The Madness Within" is not just a collection of thoughts and experiences but it is my own personal account of the miracles that have occurred in my life to bring me to this very purposeful point along the journey of "life". This book contains miracles that can inspire others to overcome the challenges in their own lives. This book shows how I overcame insurmountable odds, ignored family members who told me to give up on my dream of becoming a doctor, and how I survived possible death from a drug poisoning my body. Despite all of these problems and after several hospitalizations, somehow I still managed to graduate from pharmacy school, pass my board exams on the first try, and not only become a pharmacist but eventually a pharmacy manager, shortly after graduation. My life changed dramatically within a few years. I want to share my story so others can know that there is hope for anyone who is willing to take a step of faith in the right direction. Sometimes, I don´t like or understand the challenges that I must endure before the "miracles" but, like everyone else in this world, I realize that the miracle is just around the corner. Finally, I realized that success with the publication of this book is not measured in sales but in the number of lives that have been improved, hearts that have been mended, and families that have been restored. Although I will probably never really know how successful my book is according to these parameters, I know that the impact of this book on the lives of others, this is the true measure of success. "THE MADNESS WITHIN" is the personal account of a yielded vessel of God; including journal entries and a detailed pharmacological history which highlights medications taken upon discharge from each hospitalization and summarizes major life events.

Download or read book We Heard the Angels of Madness written by Lisa & Diane Berger and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1992-06-29 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When eighteen-year-old Mark returned home from his first semester at college, his family thought he was on drugs. In fact, he was suffering from manic depression, a devastating mental illness that affects millions of Americans and their loved ones. Diane Berger is Mark's mother and Lisa Berger is Diane's sister. Together they share both the intimate and inspiring story of how their family coped with Mark's illness and the valuable information they gathered about manic depression over the course of his treatment: up-to-date facts on drugs, doctors, therapy, insurance, and other resources. They reveal how to identify the symptoms of manic depression and avoid a false diagnosis, which treatments work and which don't -- as well as the emotional experience of a mother battling for the sanity and well-being of her child. Here is the story of emotional and dramatic power; here also is an invaluable guidebook through the medical mazes and challenges of surviving mental illness.
