This is the total reality of having mental illness in your family. A powerful desciption of the developing of a mental illness it is wonderfully with the constructive tools of recovery. It is full of bravery and hope.
A real good read for those who would like to understand mental illness better - sufferer, carer, familly, friend or professional - and is definitely for anyone who feel isolated by mental illness. It makes you realise that you are not alone. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:

Strongly recommended,
By N G Walden, Lecturer, Strathclyde University, UK - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: To Walk on Eggshells (Paperback)
To Walk on Eggshells will prove very useful to any relative, carer or friend of a mentally ill patient.
Together with the book by Mrs Johnston's daughter that describes her own experiences of mental illness 'The Naked Bird Watcher', it will prove a very useful educational tool. It is also a jolly good read - and short enough to be read by busy people. Strongly recommended. |
