The laughter and tears of manic depression. Stephen Fry takes us on a joeney into manic depression and compares notes with others whose lives have also been touched by the condition including: Carrie Fisher, Richard Dreyfuss and Rick Stein. Combining hilarious manic tales with tragic ones of of debilitating depression, Fry also turns to experts to examine current thinling on diagnosis, potential causes and how best to treat it. With a perceived link between the condition and creativity, Stephen questions this claim looking to yhe long list of artists, comedians and high flyers who have and have had it. Seriously funny and heart rendering this is a powerful and empathetic look at manic depression from all angles.
