Produktbeschreibung

"Rosie has transformed her bipolar journey into a superpower, inspiring and creating a safe space for others - she's an inspiration" Dua Lipa

"An unflinching insight into the challenges of living with bipolar" Bipolar UK

"Insightful, powerful and uplifting" Adrienne Adhami, author of Power Hour and Decisions that Matter

In 2018, model Rosie Viva was arrested after she caused Stansted Airport to evacuate all its waiting passengers following a psychotic episode. After the incident, she was hospitalised, sectioned and diagnosed with bipolar disorder - a dramatic moment that would alter the course of her life.

In this moving memoir, Rosie opens up about the unique experience of being 'normal' and 'fine', whilst dealing with the delusions, mania and depression that bipolar brings. Navigating love, work and life while in recovery, she shares how she learned to embrace a 'new normal' and left the world of modelling behind to become a mental health advocate.

Completely Normal and Totally Fine shines light on living with a complex mental health condition that's often misunderstood and underdiagnosed, inspiring us to shed the stigma around mental health and open up about our messy minds too.
