How is your book helping others?

What would you do if you received a message from a stranger telling you that your daughter, who is travelling alone in Turkey, is having some sort of mental ill health episode?

Dear Psychosis, is a confronting, frightening, dramatic and a no-holds-barred account of a family’s experience following their daughter’s psychotic episode in Istanbul, and her later diagnosis of bipolar disorder.

To some it may be a warning, to others a story of hope. Most of all, it shows how the love and care given by strangers and the courage, strength and fortitude of a family paved the way for their daughter’s recovery and inspired the family to break the silence around mental illness.

This book will give you strength, hope, awareness, resilience, empathy and knowledge - whether you are a carer, a loved one or experience mental ill health yourself.

Dear Psychosis, is a powerful story that needs to be heard.

Break. The. Silence.
