"This is a fascinating and insightful autobiographical account of the day-to-day struggles that people with bipolar disorder undergo. Elegantly written, this book easily brings out the trials and tribulations that patients with bipolar disorder face throughout their lives—within themselves, their families, and the society. It clearly highlights how spirituality and faith, when combined with appropriate medications and therapy, can help conquer the scourge of this disabling illness. This book is a courageous testament to a life lived with fortitude and determination despite the challenges and stigma associated with chronic psychiatric illness. Outstanding!"
—Vishal Madaan, MD
"I found it fascinating and compelling. It is a completely unique, entirely honest account of the experience of significant psychological problems and recovery from those difficulties."
—Peter Kinderman, Professor of Clinical Psychology
"Ruth Cohen, through the telling of her story, offers us a way into this world and allows her readers to understand something of what it means to live there. In rich and powerful narrative that offers deep insights into the experience of bipolar disorder, Cohen opens up the 'strange world of mental illness' in ways which are personal, meaningful, and, if we listen carefully, transformative."
—John Swinton, Professor in Practical Theology and Pastoral Care

No matter where she went, the black cloud surrounded her, engulfing her every thought, robbing her of the joy in life's simple things. Every accomplishment brought with it excruciating pain and intense guilt. Continually misdiagnosed and fighting for her survival, Ruth vowed to find the keys that would unlock her spirit and release the colors of her life. Travel with Ruth as she takes an unforgettable and inspirational journey across four continents and through the vast abyss of her own bipolar disorder.
