Book excerpt: Nightmares & Bliss is Dr. Suzanne Brown's second book, a memoir about her experiences ascending into the heights of bipolar mania. Suzanne's first book, Blue Hills Diary: Mystical Journey into Mania was written sixteen years earlier when she was in the throes of a manic high. In contrast, Nightmares & Bliss attempts to answer those questions bipolar manic-depressive people have about their far-flung experiences. This story documents Suzanne's over-the-top manias resulting in four traumatic hospitalizations. Suzanne shares her developing episodes, her addictions to self-medicate, and her many ventures beyond the veil, including meaningful coincidences, mystical experiences and dramatic shifts of consciousness. Nightmares & Bliss is one book for people who want to better understand the bipolar person's varying dimensions of awareness, bizarre choices, and inner psyche.
