One of the most entertaining and eye-opening non-fiction books I've read.
The story (stories, really) is presented in a unique format, as promised on the back cover.
The journal entries are raw, but vivid, and force you to feel what it's like to suffer these very real afflictions. The first-person account is remarkably enlightening.
The intertwining chapters explore, with brutal honesty, a troubled life filld with abuse, death, isolation, and mental illness.

I have absolutely never read a book that made me experience such a wide range of powerful and intense emotions like this before.
Two chapters were hard to read through the tears, and there were also unexpected times when I found myself laughing.
Very interesting, extremely gripping, and truly inspirational. Read about this brave soul overcoming suicide, and embrace your own life with a whole new vigor.

This was absolutely one of the most original, well-written, emotional, and entertaining books I've ever read. An inspirational journey by a tortured soul. This is one of a few books that I know I will read a second time.

Super real and vivid depiction of life with severe psychological disorders. Weaving journal entries, chapters, and poems together... brilliant.
An intimate read, as the author pulls you into his mind through his well-chosen words on every satisfying page. Seriously one of the most powerful, entertaining, and important books I've ever read... in spite of a few minor typos. Actually, inspired me to write my first review here. Is the term, "must-read," cliche'?
It certainly fits this book!
