DOWNLOAD EBOOKOmnibus: I love myself... and the feeling is mutual/God is confused, He thinks He's Pieter I love myself... and the feeling is mutual Pieter Overduin (Rotterdam, 1969) has suffered from manic-depression for over ten years now. During that time he has kept a diary, consisting of short fragments from his daily life. Probing, moving and at times hilariously funny, Mr Overduin writes about the first signs of the illness and the way he has dealt with it since then. He went through very difficult times for a considerable amount of time but after that he managed to pick himself up again. He also shows what effect the illness had on his family, how the medication affected him and how it enables him to lead an independent life. But without the support of the people closest to him, he would not have made it. God is confused, He thinks He's Pieter Spring, 2004. Pieter enters his publisher's office. 'I've got a new manuscript.' 'Oh no, Pieter, please tell me it's not about manic-depression again.' 'It is.' 'Then it must be very special.' 'It is.' 'In what way?' 'It includes personal accounts of people who are involved in my life.' 'About their feelings and thoughts during your manic episodes?' 'Exactly.' 'That must be very confronting!' 'It is. Why don't you read it and find out.' Again, Pieter Overduin has written a very interesting book. He describes how he suffered from a manic episode after the publication of his first book, in which he believed himself to be Gandhi and God, respectively. The personal accounts of his family, friends and former colleagues also show the other side, how a manic-depressive's illness affects the people closest to him. To them, it feels like a life sentence as well. Just like he did with his first book I love myself... and the feeling is mutual, Pieter has written a fascinating and valuable work. It's written from the heart and very funny.
