Today

An Unquiet Mind
Kay Redfield Jamison · 1995 · memoir · a few weeks of evenings · Steady

A psychologist who studies mood disorders writes about living with her own bipolar illness. She sees it from both sides, as the scientist and as the patient, which makes it unusually clear about moods, medication and identity.

Worth knowing: About bipolar disorder specifically. Still useful if that is not yours, for how she separates herself from her moods.

Lane: Steady. Real substance at a normal pace. Some deal frankly with hard experiences. Other lanes today: gentle, deep.
