In Of Waves and Wind: A Bipolar Journal, therapist Jenny Porter takes the reader behind the scenes into the diary she kept while living within the maelstrom of bipolar disorder. She brings to the account her professional experiences as a therapist caring for others with the condition, juxtaposing personal and clinical wisdom in a way that offers an intimate and unique perspective on this complicated diagnosis.

Often deeply perceptive, occasionally heartbreaking, always unflinchingly real, Of Waves and Wind: A Bipolar Journal is a highly personal account of bipolar disorder as experienced by a writer who knows it from the inside out.
