What happens when your own brain becomes your greatest enemy?

Paul E. Daniels woke up naked in a solitary confinement cell with no memory of how he got there. Seven nights earlier, he'd been a successful businessman, devoted father, and loving husband. Now he faced felony charges for assaulting healthcare workers during an acute manic episode--violence he couldn't remember.

This is the brutal reality of living with Bipolar Disorder and addiction in America, where the line between patient and prisoner can disappear in an instant.

Alive Now! is Paul's unflinching memoir of surviving twenty- two years with Bipolar Disorder and battling alcoholism in a mental healthcare system that too often criminalizes the mentally ill. From a traumatic brain injury at twenty-one to waking up in jail after seeking help, he reveals what it truly means to live with severe mental illness--and how he found his way back through rehabilitation, AA, therapy, and family support.

More than a survival story, Alive Now! offers hope and practical guidance for anyone struggling with mental illness or addiction. Paul proves that every day you're alive is where you begin.
