    About this ebook

    This work has been done to help in the appreciation of the new wave toward labeling or mental-health diagnosis. If you have gone to the provider for headaches but came away with a mental-health diagnosis, or even having experienced anxiety from the loss of an employment opportunity, only to discover you are bipolar? This is the book for you.

    This is written with a half of an edge of humor with very serious undertones. The question in this book is, why? Why over diagnosis? Why the need for consistent and continuous medication? Is it due to pharmaceutical persuasion from overzealous marketing? What? I will examine some and more of these issues in this small piece that speaks to a very real importance.
