Advance Praise
"In his unflinching memoir, Conor Bezane chronicles his struggles with bipolar disorder and addiction. The stories he tells are harrowing yet hopeful as he offers a rare glimpse into the mind of someone who turns to alcohol and drugs in a desperate — yet all too common — attempt to soothe a chemically misfiring brain. A must-read for people grappling with the double whammy of a mood disorder coupled with addiction — and those who love them.” - Betsy Forhan, Executive Producer, National Geographic Channel
“Conor Bezane sees through the darkness with startling clarity in this powerful, unsentimental journal of descent into madness and back again.”- Jim Fraenkel, former Vice President, MTV News
