Laura Delano was a psychiatric patient for fourteen years. She was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the age of 14 and was prescribed 19 psychiatric medications, often in combinations of three or four at a time. She also attended Harvard University and was a nationally ranked squash player, but later she became very ill and struggled to cope with life. In 2010 she walked away from the treatment altogether, and for good. Laura Delano details that journey in a new memoir, out this week, titled “Unshrunk: A Story of Psychiatric Treatment Resistance.”
