Meagan (Meagansbookclub)'s Reviews > While You Were Out: An Intimate Family Portrait of Mental Illness in an Era of Silence

Thought this was a beautiful memoir. Lots of insights into the world of mental health and how to be a better advocate for those struggling. It was inspiring to hear about everything Meg has been able to do to help and make changes. Her reflections on her family and her ability to stay close to her siblings through all the trials she experienced is very inspiring to me. I loved the ending when the stories came together to research for this book, a few of the memories she had about her sister and mom were corrected due to information from other people who also experienced it. I thought that was so inspiring and beautiful.
