Pardon My Psychosis
delivers a raw and humanizing perspective of the mental, physical, and spiritual toll a psychotic break takes on an individual and their family.
Hallucinations and delusions of grandeur weave through James's perception of reality, setting in motion the swift unraveling of time and space around him. Speaking with angels and defending his home against demons becomes an ordinary day.
Until it's not.
When his mind shatters at work, the ER doctor suspects drugs, and his wife fears a tumor, but James wonders what all the fuss is about. His ability to see beyond the natural realm has burst into the open, and he is none the wiser.
As the doors to the psych ward close, his wife disappears into the darkness, leaving him to fight the spiritual battles that ensue.
This memoir will have you questioning if more is at play than brain chemicals and environmental conditions as James shares his unfiltered account of walking in God's love through psychosis-induced chaos.
