A truly amazing book is "An Unquiet Mind : A Memoir of Moods and Madness" by Kay Redfield Jamison. Although a bit dated now (published in 1997), it helped me identify. After reading that book I knew, for certain, what was different about me. It would still be many years before I was able to work a "dual" program and stay both sober and out of the hospital. Twice the disease, twice the work.
