In this powerful memoir, 20-Time Oxford University Medical Journals Contributor, McLean Hospital Harvard Resident doctor instructor, and Good Men's Project Columnist Steve Colori courageously articulates his experience of facing and overcoming schizoaffective disorder. His personal narrative gives readers insight into the true nature of the illness, providing a lucid description of symptoms such as hallucinations, paranoia, OCD, suicidal thoughts, bipolar disorder, mania, insomnia, family issues, and social dysfunction
Stek's Deliberations

Entering his second semester at Bulger University, he meets a group of fraternity brothers who invite him to join Epsilon Tau Omega—“the greatest fraternity ever!” Rob's search for a meaningful college experience is a highly entertaining read, filled with comedy and drama.

Memoir reviews
Should be Mandatory for Medical and Nursing Students
“The author writes from his personal experiences in a style that clearly helps the reader understand the vast challenges of dealing with Schizoaffective disorder. Fascinating that he was aware of mental processing issues very early in life, but compensated quite well until early adulthood. His willingness to share the details of numerous spirals and the difficult battles to regain clarity explain the disorder better than any textbook I have seen in 40 years of nursing practice.”
