Those People: Learning to love, care for and respect people struggling with mental illness. A gentle, wise and informative guide for family, friends and caregivers.

In this gentle, wise, and informative book, Judy Davis offers a guide for the family, friends, and caregivers of those with mental illness, explaining the key types of mental illness, what it feels like from the patient's point of view, and how family and friends can help—or hurt!—the process of recovery. Davis was inspired to write Those People after a patient asked her if she would call her pastor and explain “bipolar” because “he just doesn’t get it.” This book offers insight and practical help to anyone–family, friends, teachers, coaches, pastors, employers–who cares for or knows someone with mental illness. Well-researched yet non-technical, Those People is a must-have, easy to understand, gentle, wise, and caring guidebook for anyone in relationship with someone suffering from mental illness.
