From Under The Cloud: Or Personal Reminisences Of Insanity is a memoir written by Anna Agnew and first published in 1886. The book is a first-hand account of Agnew's experience with mental illness, specifically her struggles with depression and anxiety. Through her writing, Agnew provides a unique perspective on the stigmatization of mental illness during the late 19th century and the challenges faced by those who suffered from it. The memoir is divided into chapters that chronicle Agnew's journey through her illness, from the initial onset of symptoms to her eventual recovery. She discusses the various treatments she underwent, including confinement in a mental institution, and the impact that her illness had on her personal and professional life. Throughout the book, Agnew also reflects on the broader societal attitudes towards mental illness and the lack of understanding and support available to those who suffered from it. She argues for greater compassion and understanding towards those who experience mental health issues and highlights the importance of proper treatment and care. Overall, From Under The Cloud is a poignant and insightful memoir that sheds light on the experiences of those who have lived with mental illness. It remains a valuable resource for anyone seeking to better understand the history of mental health and the ongoing struggle for greater awareness and support.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
