In Voicemails from My Sister, author Kate Russell explores her sister Sibby's bipolar schizoaffective disorder through true stories that illustrate the disease and how medication both helped and hindered its progress. From her mother's drug use during pregnancy, which led to an incomplete diagnosis, to Sibby's current mental status, as a 37-year-old ward of the state, Kate breaks down her sister's disease by highlighting events that contributed to the uprise and decline of her well-being. Both heartbreaking and hilarious, Kate recounts true tales of her sister over the years, painting a picture of a unique, lovable victim of circumstance. Touching on their parents addiction, narcissism, and neglect, Kate illuminates how their family's denial and unwillingness contributed to Sibby's disorder. A must-listen for anyone with a history of mental illness in their family, this quick listen will have you laughing one minute and crying the next. Ultimately, you will fall in love with Sibby and be left rooting for her healthy recovery.

GREAT READ!

Lest you think that the whole thing is a downer, Russell sprinkles some humourous anecdotes throughout. Perhaps it's the dark gallows humor of a survivor, but there are clearly lighter moments.
I highly recommend this book for anyone living with addiction either personally or with loved ones.
Another harrowing trip down the rabbit hole!
