A touching story,
By Avery Z. Conner (West Lafayette, IN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Manic By Midnight (Paperback)
Faye has written a touching and uplifting story about her struggle with bipolar disorder. She appears to have been afflicted with a pretty severe variety of the disorder, perhaps Bipolar I would be the proper diagnosis. The writing isn't as good as in the finest mental illness memoirs, such as "An Unquiet Mind" or "Girl, Interrupted", but she is still able to tell her story vividly and honestly. The reader is likely to find himself cheering for her, hoping she can get her life back together. Anyone with bipolar disorder should read this book. Avery Z. Conner, author of "Fevers of the Mind".

Uplifting story on being bipolar from one who's been there,
By jt (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Manic By Midnight (Paperback)
While most people try to forget a painful past, Faye has done a great service in sharing hers with us in her book. It took a lot of courage to delve back into the pain and humiliation brought on by her illness. In doing so Faye gives hope to others who have to deal with this disease. Her proactive approach in dealing with being Manic/Depressive is beneficial as well as her on-going work getting information out on the disease. She is one determined crusader who is helping remove the stigma of mental illness and letting people know they aren't alone in fighting this disease.

Manic by Midnight Defines Bipolar Disorder,
By A Customer
This review is from: Manic By Midnight (Paperback)
I laughed and cried while reading this incredibly honest, inspirational story of Faye's recovery from her manic depressive illness. I was left with a better understanding of the disease and with the feeling of hope that happiness exist for those compliant with their medication after their diagnosis of mental illness. Faye made me belive that others that find themselves in a similar situation can make it too.
