Pete Earley had no idea. He'd been a journalist for over thirty years, and the author of several award-winning-even bestselling-nonfiction books about crime and punishment and society. Yet he'd always been on the outside looking in. He had no idea what it was like to be on the inside looking out until his son, Mike, was declared mentally ill, and Earley was thrown headlong into the maze of contradictions, disparities, and catch-22s that is America's mental health system.

Pete Earley had no idea. He'd been a journalist for over thirty years, and the author of several award-winning-even bestselling-nonfiction books about crime and punishment and society. Yet he'd always been on the outside looking in. He had no idea what it was like to be on the inside looking out until his son, Mike, was declared mentally ill, and Earley was thrown headlong into the maze of contradictions, disparities, and catch-22s that is America's mental health system. "Crazy is a godsend. It will open the minds of many who make choices for the mentally ill. Countless numbers of us owe Pete Earley and his son, Mike, a great debt."-Patty Duke

This book is a heartwrenching account of a father's struggle to understand an illness that can be devastating to the person and his/her family. I highly recommend it to any mental health professional, to any person afflicted with bipolar disorder, and to any family member of a person with bipolar disorder. It describes in detail the depths that untreated bipolar disorder can inflict on a person and family. It can motivate someone with bipolar disorder to seek help. Not for the faint of heart.
