Summary
In Manic: A Memoir, Terri Cheney delivers a raw, unflinching account of her life behind the mask of high-functioning success while battling bipolar disorder. A former entertainment lawyer in Beverly Hills, Cheney offers readers a front-row seat to the euphoric highs and devastating lows of her condition. With poetic prose and searing honesty, she dismantles the glamour and romanticism often associated with mania, revealing instead a world of impulsivity, self-destruction, and unbearable pain. This is more than just a memoir—it's a brave act of advocacy that brings awareness to the complexities of mental illness. Perfect for readers seeking a deeply human, personal exploration of psychological struggle, Manic is a powerful addition to any collection of contemporary memoirs or mental health literature.
