Bassey Ikpi - 2019-08-20
Goodreads Rating
This deeply personal collection of essays explores the journey of a Nigerian-American author with Bipolar II and anxiety. Her experiences navigating assimilation in America while struggling with mental health issues remained undiagnosed for decades. Bassey Ikpi shares her story of a precipitous decline, culminating in hospitalization and a diagnosis of Bipolar II. Her journey towards becoming a mental health advocate is a raw, honest exploration of the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of who we are and the ways in which they can be a lie.
