WILMINGTON, NC, July 15, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Author Sid Nachman has announced the release of 'Bipolar Me'. Sid Nachman was the first person in the US to be diagnosed and successfully treated for bipolarism over 50 years ago. Sid writes engaging nonfiction books that revolve around his experiences growing up in Philadelphia.
Nachman's somewhat acerbic wit, no-holds-barred writing style and deft storytelling takes readers on a carnival ride, filled with stories that demonstrate that life is ultimately just plain good. BookLover USA said that the book is "A roller coaster ride through the mind of one of the funniest and endearing story-tellers of his generation."
'Bipolar Me' is a highly entertaining memoir that allows readers to take a ride with Sid into the unfettered mind of a bipolar boy who never grows up until his hair turns white. Readers will get to see his world in black and white and vivid color and will feel what he feels when he feels like he weighs three thousand pounds and a minute later can leap over tall buildings. Sid's life is a life gone wild that settles down when it's almost too late.
"I wrote this book for a number of reasons," Nachman stated. "As a legacy for my kids. To dispel some myths about mental illness. To thank God for holding my hand through the good and bad. And last but not least, to make enough money to pay off my car so my wife, Linda has nothing to worry about and I can die in peace."
Sid Nachman is also the author of 'Strictly For Seniors' - an entertaining book of fifteen short stories about what happened to Sid "after breakfast on Delancey Street" in West Philly during the 30's and 40's when his Mom gave him a big hug and kiss and sent him on his way. Readers will enjoy this engaging memoir, full of entertaining stories about how Sid had fun, faced his demons, survived bullying and learned how to take care of himself. Sid also included a few fairy tales that just happened to drop in.
Both books have received rave reviews and comments from reviewers and readers alike. One stated, "Like James Joyce, Sid Nachman can take the ordinary and turn it into magic with a fluency that's imperceptible." Another said "Sid's stories touch the human soul with wit, charm and realism."
