Description:
Strictly Bipolar is Darian Leader's treatise on the psychological disorder of our times.
If the post-war period was called the 'Age of Anxiety' and the 1980s and '90s the 'Antidepressant Era', we now live in Bipolar times. Mood-stabilising medication is routinely prescribed to adults and children alike, with child prescriptions this decade increasing by 400% and overall diagnoses by 4000%.
What could explain this explosion of bipolarity? Is it a legitimate diagnosis or the result of Big Pharma marketing? Exploring these questions, Darian Leader challenges the rise of 'bipolar' as a catch-all solution to complex problems, and argues that we need to rethink the highs and lows of mania and depression.
What, he asks, do these experiences have to do with love, guilt and rage? Why the spending sprees and the intense feeling of connection with the world? Why the confidence, the self-esteem and the sense of a bright future that can so swiftly turn into despair and dejection?
Only by looking at these questions in a new way will we be able to understand and help the person caught between feelings that can be so terrifying and so exhilarating, so life-affirming yet also so lethal.
Strictly Bipolar is essential reading for anyone interested in contemporary views of the self, bipolarity and a deeper understanding of manic-depression.
Praise for Strictly Bipolar-
'A beautifully thoughtful understanding not just of highs and lows,mania and depression, but of why and how these mechanisms work in our mindsand bodies and how the human subject is coerced todayto embrace a culture of 'bipolarity'' Susi

So soft and cool on my face at night. Fit my pillows perfectly and don’t slip off. They’re thin but thick at the same time (if that makes sense), super breathable and clean well in the washing machine. I cosleep so stains happen and I love good quality fabric that doesn’t stain easily.

Decent quality, good color, bad shipping package

You pay for the quality you get. I think they’re thick & soft enough and the coloring is spot on. However, like other reviews, it was shipped not inside an Amazon box but the actual company slip packaging & the tape was already off with some of the pillow cover sticking out. They should change how they ship them, I would have given it 5 stars.
