The Valedictorian of Being Dead: The True Story of Dying Ten Times to Live
by Heather B. Armstrong
I've loved Heather Armstrong's writing for many years but didn't realize how deeply she struggled with crippling depression. What a gift this book is to anyone who feels hopeless in their day-to-day battles with mental illness and what a gift this treatment was for Heather. This book was a fascinating read from page 1. It follows her experience with a groundbreaking treatment that rendered her nearly brain dead 10 times in three weeks as an alternative to shock therapy. True to her writing style, it's the dark humor that keeps the reader on their toes with each page. Would definitely recommend for anyone interested in mental health.
