Description
"David Hill had to die so that Anand Chintan could be born. My story is like the caterpillar spinning a cocoon, entering into death, and then being reborn as a winged creature. For me, meditation and the various therapy groups provided the cocoon. I entered as a world-weary intellectual, an alcoholic, deluded, manic-depressive atheist, and I emerged as a bright-eyed explorer of new worlds." Travel with David Hill as he moves from depression and despair to health and happiness, by mastering his "madness." David's journey into, and out of, so-called mental illness offers rousing, valuable insights into this falsely labeled condition and its expensive, debilitating, drug-centered "treatments." In this poignant, sometimes terrifying, and often humorous journey, David exposes modern myths about mental health diagnosis and treatment that do more harm than good. "Mental illness," he asserts, "is a fabricated label designed to pathologize human emotions, human spirituality, and human growth. It provides inflated profits for such parasitical institutions as Big Pharma." David's story is a landscape of mental illness, with stops at mania, depression, chemical straitjackets, suicide, and interactions with other madmen. It guides us from the world of pathology, into the natural world of joy and health.
