They Let Me Out: The Tale of a Fashion Designer Who Wouldn't Let a Little Bipolar Disorder Stop Her from Having a Good Time 1st edition

Fatima Blues was a fashion designer who found herself trapped in her own mind by mental illness. As the conflict between mind and reality took her imagination to another level, her only saviour was her rebellious nature. This compelling autobiographical novel leaves the examination of the truth to the reader. Born in the Maldives to an aristocratic island family, Fatima first married a raw young Scotsman whom she loved for his left-wing politics, then a cultured Welshman who turned out to have a different agenda. Both men agreed that life with Fatima was never dull. Having finally emerged triumphant and in good health from her 20-year battle with bipolar disorder, Fatima has written her witty, moving story.
