Description
Chow Ee-Tan had her first onset of bipolar syndrome at 15. From then on, she had walked through peaks and valleys due to her mood swings, extraordinary and even bizarre experiences that she otherwise woud not have encountered: from dropping out of school to false and failed romances to twice-warded in psychiatric hospitals. Her first book `An Elated State of Mind: Memoir of a Bipolar Person’ is written with brutal honesty and forthrightness, as Ee-Tan shares her life journey as a bipolar person – chronicling the episodes she went through – mainly a series of elations as well as a dark depression episode. Readers may empathise with her on what she has gone through, how she felt and how she coped before she returned to a normal state of mind, cyclically. But in the midst of all these trials and chaos, Ee-Tan found Jesus and had placed her trust in God. Her days had never been too bleak or hopeless despite the many hardships and heartaches he had gone through. Her faith in God has been her ankle and instrumental in helping her to eventually lead a normal life, and manage her illness with aplomb.
Author:
Chow Ee-Tan was a journalist with two local English dailies before she became a freelance writer 16 years ago. Her portfolio ranges from editorial articles for magazines to copywriting and content creation for corporations, but identifies herself as a journalist/writer most with a wide variety of published works locally and regionally. She began writing her memoir more than two decades ago to share her bipolar experience with others and as a testimony of God’s faithfulness in her life. She is thankful to God to have finally completed and published this book.
