| Publisher Description: The truth about Bi Polar Disorder, Mania and Psychosis all wrapped up in a disturbing tale of love and obsession. Never before has there been such an enlightened insight into the machinations of a broken mind, written by a true sufferer of psychotic mood imbalances and obsessional behaviour. You will cry with laughter and sorrow and no doubt feel uncomfortable at some of the subject matter, but above all you will be rewarded with a rare insight into the life of a manic depressive and the high and lows that this entails. If you truly wish to understand depression, mania, psychosis and obsession then forget the hundreds of texts book that repeat the same old dross. This book tells you exactly as it is and you will be rewarded with not just a new and in depth understanding of mental illness but also be entertained like you will never have been before....and yes, that's me on the cover, doing what I have been doing for years...so I pass you over to Kirk, my closest confidant and alter ego... Welcome to the hilarious and sad world of Kirkland Christie; a manic depressive with an obsessional character that sees him spend his time kerb jumping, hiding in hedges, midget hunting, aggressive ham eating and of course CROUCHING; Despite all his mental shortcomings or because of them, he finds himself in a wonderful relationship with the sexy Lucy and all of a sudden his life seems to be turning around. However, things don't go to plan and soon Kirk is left facing his very worst demons... This may be the strangest love story ever; the tale revolves around Kirk's burgeoning relationship with Lucy and covers a six week period in which his life goes from manic fuelled highs to cataclysmic lows. You may find much of the content to be quite disturbing as Kirk's mind focuses on all sorts of outlandish concepts, but as a long term sufferer of Bi Polar Disorder himself, the author refuses to pull any punches when it comes to describing the affect a broken mind can have on its owner and on those around him. Don't expect any political correctness; bi polar just doesn't work within such boundaries. So dive in and join Kirk's CROUCHING Community and enter a world unlike anything you will have ever seen the like of before. |
