Out of the Madhouse

Once upon a time, there lived a happy family called the Maitlands. Until October 2012, when Iain received a message. Michael had been taken to hospital. Years of anxiety, depression and anorexia had taken their toll, and he had pneumonia and a collapsed lung. Told with humour and frankness through Michael's diary entries and Iain's own reflections, Out of the Madhouse charts Michael's journey to recovery from entering the Priory and returning home, to becoming a mental health ambassador for young people. Sharing tips and techniques that have helped them and others to self-manage, this is an essential resource for anyone experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD and similar issues.
