This book has received some wonderful and honest reviews, both here and on Amazon. Who would have thought that a story written in a back bedroom in Tottenham, made it its way across the world to America and India. Take a look at http://www.bipolar-expedition.co.uk for an update on its progress, and thank you for buying my book. Neil Walton, aka Bipolar Bill, author.

Neil Walton\’s frank account of his life with bipolar disorder is an emotional and informative read. For anyone interested in mental illness, Walton\’s book is an excellent place to start. He writes from the heart but at the same time does not take himself too seriously. His sense of humour lightens what could otherwise be a very heavy read. I would recommend this to professionals, people with an amateur interest and especially those with the disorder and their friends and family.

This book is both laugh-out-loud funny and sad at the same time. I could not put it down and read it in one sitting. Everyone with a relative, friend or working with mental health patients MUST read this and anyone interested in mental illness SHOULD read it.

The author takes you through what life functioning outside “normality” is like to himself and his friends, family and work colleagues, and the far reaching consequences his illness had on all of them. BUT he writes in such a down to earth way that you feel you know him, what he is going through, and can completely empathize with his problems. The fact that he has now written about his illness and experiences is uplifting and hopeful to all other sufferers and their friends and family. You finish this book wanting to know “what happened next”?

The only criticism you can make of this book is the spelling and grammar, surely the fault of his editors, but the actual content of the book, the readability and accessibility to all is to be lauded and shared.

Buy it, read it, share with everyone you know and I dare you not to be affected in some way by this book – the next time you see a “nutter” in your shopping centre, on the street or in a pub will make you think about that person completely differently after reading this………Excellent stuff
