While You Were Out: An Intimate Family Portrait of Mental Illness in an Era of Silence

A beautiful and honest memoir. Thank you, Meg, for shining a bright light on a subject that is still considered by many to be embarrassing and/or shameful.
"I learned how people with these crippling illnesses - major depression, schizophrenia, bipolar illness - are cast aside, ignored, even vilified. I knew only too well how we tend to blame them - or their families - for their sickness, as though they brought it on by some moral failure." pg. 200
