Author Danielle Sargent's New Book 'Raised by a Bipolar Genius' is a Compelling Work About the Author's Experience Growing Up With a Mentally Ill Parent
LOS ANGELES, June 25, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Danielle Sargent, a paralegal and property manager, has completed her new book "Raised by a Bipolar Genius": a gripping and potent work that shares the author's story of torment, joy, crisis, and great sadness.
Author Danielle Sargent writes, "As I was growing up, my mother was shipped from mental hospital to boarding school to mental hospital all her life. She loved to get drunk at parties and write brilliant poems by candlelight, then catching the drapes on fire that would burn the house down. At least the poems were very prolific. She and her brother, Burris, tested extremely high on the genius scale, and it sure did show. They both were highly creative, scientific, and what seemed to be intellect was psychobabble. But my mother could beat anyone at chess, even her brother, Burris. I myself never learned how to play chess because I was afraid my mother would tear me limb from limb. Mom was extremely competitive in the worst way. She would use intimidation tactics of eye glaring and sneering to shake down speech that would make a baby cry. I did not find it in myself to ever go up against her, outsing her, out-anything her without any kind of serious ramification."
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Danielle Sargent's engaging tale provides insight into the reality of a troubled childhood.
The author hopes the book will inspire readers that, despite trauma, they can succeed.
