Just shy of twenty-five, Teresa Brunsting had everything she thought she needed for a good life--a great job, loyal friends, and a boyfriend. She dreamed of a more lasting "normal": marriage, family, and stability. Beneath the surface, however, was an unpredictable anger and shame that sent her on harmful detours. When her emotions finally overwhelmed her, life was never the same.
A bipolar diagnosis and therapy offered a few helpful strategies but augmented her difficulty with a new choice: Would she disclose her illness and risk alienation, or would she have to walk away from any stressful situation that triggered the clamoring voices in her head to survive?
God didn't help her find an easy answer or a way out of the illness. Instead, He helped her see pieces of the coping puzzle that empowered her to level her mind and become her true self. As she persisted on her 40-year journey, Teresa relied more and more on the love and peace of Jesus--the One her influential grandmother's life exuded. He not only transformed Teresa's life, but He also powerfully intervened in her family's story as well.
Finding Normal in Bipolar is a gripping page-turner and a compassionate guide for anyone struggling with mental illness or emotional turmoil. In its pages, you will find practical insights and spiritual wisdom to apply in your own journey--piece by piece. Teresa's hope is that what took her a lifetime to learn will help you find normal more quickly, ultimately empowering you to move beyond balanced to surrendered significance.
