The Rumi Prescription How an Ancient Mystic Poet Changed My Modern Manic Life【電子書籍】[ Melody Moezzi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A powerful personal journey to find meaning and life lessons in the words of a wildly popular 13th century poet</strong>.</p> <p>Rumi's inspiring and deceptively simple poems have been called ecstatic, mystical, and devotional. To writer and activist Melody Moezzi, they became a lifeline. In <em>The Rumi Prescription</em>, we follow her path of discovery as she translates Rumi's works for herself - to gain wisdom and insight in the face of a creative and spiritual roadblock. With the help of her father, who is a lifelong fan of Rumi's poetry, she immerses herself in this rich body of work, and discovers a 13th-century prescription for modern life.</p> <p>Addressing isolation, distraction, depression, fear, and other everyday challenges we face, the book offers a roadmap for living with intention and ease, and embracing love at every turn--despite our deeply divided and chaotic times. Most of all, it presents a vivid reminder that we already have the answers we seek, if we can just slow down to honor them.</p> <p><em>You went out in search of gold far and wide, but all along you were gold on the inside.</em></p> <p><em>Become the sky and the clouds that create the rain, not the gutter that carries it to the drain.</em></p> <p><em>You already own all the sustenance you seek. If only you'd wake up and take a peek.</em></p> <p><em>Quit being a drop. Make yourself an ocean.</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,740円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Thirteen years ago, I led a very dark and disturbing life, and I was suffering severely with mental illness and drug addiction. During this dark period of my life, I isolated myself from my family, friends and the world in my little den on Long Island. While I was in my “Den of Darkness” I did something else besides drugs and drinking, I sat at my desk and wrote poetry. Hundreds and hundreds of poems that stored in my desk top computer. These poems were not written in a proper state of mind. Unfortunately, because of the mind set I was in at that time, my poetry is very dark and disturbing, but when I think about it -- isn’t Batman dark and disturbing?

Nailed to History: The Story of Manic Street Preachers【電子書籍】[ Martin Power ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Manic Street Preachers have established themselves as one the UK's most enduring, intelligent and credible rocks groups, but that quest for greatness has been a difficult, sometimes torturous path; a path which one of their number the gifted and troubled Richley Edwards abandoned for destinations still unknown.</p> <p><strong>Nailed To History</strong> traces the slow yet inexorable climb of the South Wales band from their 1980s glam-punk origins, critically derided as 'Generation Terrorists', to their current position as respected art-rock intellectuals - a fact underlined by 2009's award-winning ‘A Journal For Plague Lovers’.</p> <p>This <em>Omnibus Enhanced</em> edition now includes a multimedia discography, charting every album and single release the band has made through a timeline of music videos and album art.</p> <p>Author Martin Power also examines the life and complex personality of Edwards, whose highly politicised, morally disquieting wordplay defined much of the Manics' early appeal - his personal demons writ large across 1994's dark masterwork ‘The Holy Bible’. Edwards' evermore extreme behaviour culminated in his sad, strange disappearance in February, 1995.</p> <p>A story of honour and enduring friendship, of 'culture, alienation, boredom' and despair, <strong>Nailed To History</strong> examines the Manic Street Preachers’ musical output and the personalities that make them an enduring artistic and political force.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,343円

Manic Dawn: The Strange Adventures of a Mad Father and a Loyal Son【電子書籍】[ Karl Kahler ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This is the story of a good dad with a bad problem. Jerry Kahler was an international educator who raised a family in five countries and once played bridge with John Wayne. But he suffered from a rare type of bipolar disorder that caused extreme manic episodes lasting months, and this got him into every kind of trouble imaginable.</p> <p>Jerry was arrested perhaps 20 times and served seven years in prison in the United States and Costa Rica. Yet he was the uncommonest of criminals, usually charged with offenses like disturbing the peace, fleeing the police or resisting arrest.</p> <p>When two armed police officers tried to handcuff Jerry at his home in Little Rock, he subdued both of them using a headlock and a leglock, prompting an "Officers down!" call to which 17 policemen responded. When confined to a rubber room in northwest Arkansas, Jerry set it on fire, prompting the evacuation of an entire psychiatric ward. When told by one examiner that he couldn't smoke in the office because there was no ashtray, Jerry offered to eat his own ashes.</p> <p>Jerry's son, author and journalist Karl Kahler, has written a madcap memoir of his father's shocking and sometimes hilarious misadventures. A fascinating exploration of the manic condition, this compulsively readable true story is a harrowing descent into madness, and a son's uncommonly intimate portrait of a troubled father.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 750円

Manic Man How to Live Successfully with a Severe Mental Illness【電子書籍】[ Jason Wegner ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Manic Man: How to Live Successfully with a Severe Mental Illness is an account of Jason Wegner's experiences living with a severe mental illness: bipolar I disorder.</p> <p>The story begins with an outline of Jason's normal life and then describes the hypomanic stage of his illness. The mania starts with his experience of taking the dangerous psychedelic drug LSD and takes off a few weeks later in Tanzania, Africa. He is in a full-blown manic episode while in Africa, and his behaviours and thoughts captured demonstrate this. Weeks of mania continued after he was home from Africa until he was tricked into going in an ambulance and taken to the hospital's emergency wing. He would be hospitalized in the acute psychiatry ward for 57 days, and seven months of depression follows his hospitalization.</p> <p>?To lift himself out of his severe depression, his psychologist, Dr. Kerry Bernes, develops "The Octagon of Life," which is the eight areas of life that he gets Jason to focus on. Following the plan, Jason gets out of depression and experiences post-traumatic growth and becomes a more successful person than he was before his diagnosis.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,172円

The Marriage of Heaven and Hell Manic Depression and the Life of Virginia Woolf【電子書籍】[ Peter Dally ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Combining his knowledge as a doctor and a lifelong fascination with Virginia Woolf's life and work, eminent psychiatrist Peter Dally offers a haunting and compelling look at the depression that tormented Virginia Woolf throughout her adult years, in <em>The Marriage of Heaven and Hell: Manic Depression and the Life of Virginia Woolf</em>.<br /> On three occasions Virginia went mad. Symptoms of these episodes included conversations with her dead mother, and hearing birds speak in Greek. Though a quiet life cushioned her childhood, the renown that Woolf achieved through writing inspired the bouts of depression and elation that she regularly experienced as an adult. This terrified Virginia, and though the experience offered extraordinary insight into her craft, Woolf lived in constant fear of her dreadful affliction.<br /> Virginia's most vital protection from stress was her husband, Leonard. Without his constant vigilance and care, it is doubtful she would have been so creatively productive. Yet, paradoxically, their marriage ultimately precipitated her most dangerous bout of madness. Toward the end of her life, when events outside the couple's control led to Leonard's own depression and gradual withdrawal, Virginia found herself facing madness alone, and with tragic results.<br /> Compassionate and disturbing, this fascinating study is the first to look at Virginia Woolf's life from the perspective of her illness.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,440円

When manic episodes began to creep into his life, he put his family through hell and risked his own life in the process.

His family physician prescribed him Adderall to focus and Trazodone to sleep. Rodriguez also started taking Prozac because his doctor thought he had situational depression because his grandma had died, his longtime girlfriend had dumped him, and his college coursework was stressing him out. Injuries had also forced him to stop playing hockey. In short order, he was abusing prescription drugs and scaring the people that loved him most. When he was finally diagnosed with Bipolar 1, he had to ease his life into a place of balance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,114円

Freak Kingdom Hunter S. Thompson's Manic Ten-Year Crusade Against American Fascism【電子書籍】[ Timothy Denevi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The story of Hunter S. Thompson's crusade against Richard Nixon and the threat of fascism in America--and the devastating price he paid for it</strong></p> <p>Hunter S. Thompson is often misremembered as a wise-cracking, drug-addled cartoon character. This book reclaims him for what he truly was: a fearless opponent of corruption and fascism, one who sacrificed his future well-being to fight against it, rewriting the rules of journalism and political satire in the process. This skillfully told and dramatic story shows how Thompson saw through Richard Nixon's treacherous populism and embarked on a life-defining campaign to stop it. In his fevered effort to expose institutional injustice, Thompson pushed himself far beyond his natural limits, sustained by drugs, mania, and little else. For ten years, he cast aside his old ambitions, troubled his family, and likely hastened his own decline, along the way producing some of the best political writing in our history.</p> <p>This timely biography recalls a period of anger and derangement in American politics, and one writer with the guts to tell the truth.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,693円

Adventures In Manic Depression Tales in Fine Madness【電子書籍】[ Stuart Goldman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>“Adventures In Manic Depression,” is not a book <em>about</em> manic-depression, “although I make no bones that I have been living with this condition since I was nine years old” says author Stuart Goldman.</p> <p>The book is a collection of Goldman’s workーboth fiction and non-fiction, culled from over 40 years of writing for newspapers and magazines. “The hardest thing about putting this book together,” Goldman says, was to find an “order” to put the stories into.</p> <p>A lifetime professional musician, Goldman said that putting “Adventures” together was rather like composing a symphony.</p> <p>“It was all about rhythm, timing, when to use a crescendo, and when to let the music (stories) become so soft that you have to strain to hear them. Ultimately, I was trying to create a mood, more than anything else.”</p> <p>Goldman’s first draft of “Adventures” was over 750 pages long, and cutting it down to its current 430-page length was “incredibly difficult.” He spent the last three months of the year it took him to put the book together, taking it apart and putting it back together, as one would a jigsaw puzzle.</p> <p>“When you have a book that includes straight investigative reportage (Goldman covered both the Menendez Brothers Murder case and the Natalee Holloway Murder Case, for the book) “it’s not easy to fit other types of material into that mood set.”</p> <p>Coupled with darkly humorous stories, and memoirsーincluding pieces about the death of both his mother and his fatherーGoldman says that in writing “Adventures,” he’s entered virtually every area of the human psyche.</p> <p>As for manic-depression itself, though Goldman states that the book doesn’t deal with this subject directly, that “there’s no doubt that some of my characters suffer from this malady.”</p> <p>“This is definitely not a <em>fun</em> read, says Goldman. “It’s a book that’s going to take the reader into some very dark places, though it’s certainly not without it’s moments of joy sadness, and dark humor.”</p> <p>Goldman has dedicated the book to his father, Maurice Goldmanーa well-known composer of classical (primarily Yiddish) music, and his mother, Ethel Mann Goldman, who, at age 18 was the youngest flautist in the Cleveland Philharmonic Orchestra.</p> <p>Goldman, who gave up playing music professionally (he traveled on the road with a number of country and blues artists, including Doug Kershaw (“The Rajun’ Cajun”), John Stewartーformer member of the Kingston Trioーand Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys, says that when he decided to quit the music scene, he took up writing, “because it was the only other thing I knew how to do.</p> <p>“And if, for some reason, I found that I couldn’t’ write anymore, I’d wind up playing music againーI’m quite sure of that.”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,627円

<p><strong>Book synopsis:</strong></p> <p>Dark to Light explores one woman's journey through the darkness, madness, loneliness, and despair of manic-depression. The book opens with poetry and prose that express the darker side of the illness. It is in her darkness, however, that she learns she is not alone and that by sticking together with others caught in the same bondage as she, there is both Hope and Light to be found. Through her suffering, she learns the importance of her God-given life and so begins the rise out of her pit. Rising out of the Dark she walks boldly into the Light with a new perspective on life and herself. She learns to focus on beauty as a weapon against the darkness. She finally comes to a place where she can find peace and gratitude to God. It is an amazing journey from the embrace of darkness into the warmth of the light.</p> <p><strong>Autobiography:</strong></p> <p>Jennifer Toth has been writing poetry since the age of sixteen.
