Reading this book, I kept thinking that her symptoms seemed to reflect bipolar disorder, perhaps complicated by BPD, rather than a depressive disorder. The chaos, the neediness, the need for others to prove their love, and, most telling, others' responses to her behavior spoke to me as BPD...which would allow explain other readers' irritation/revulsion.
The epilogue was the best part, and what I was expecting more of from the book. In the epilogue, she talks in general terms about the Gen-x tendency toward depression and the culture of the 1990s. Most of the rest of the book is her own story and it is sad but, as she herself admits in the afterward, the repetitiveness of it can be annoying. Still, I'm not sorry I read it. It was a book I always hear about and never got around to and it was relatable sometimes.
