Bipolar disorder runs in Autumn Stringam's family. Autumn and her younger brother inherited the mental illness, and they and their families suffered terribly as a result. In the poignant, fascinating, and remarkable A Promise of Hope, Autumn describes their amazing recovery through their father's incredible discovery, one that has helped her, her brother, and thousands of other North Americans.
Autumn Stringam was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when she was twenty and has been symptom-free for over eleven years. As a public speaker, author of mental health resources and political advocate for the mentally ill, she has spread the hope of recovery to thousands of Canadians and a growing worldwide audience. Autumn Stringam lives in Coaldale, Alberta, with her husband and four children.
