ymptoms.
The first part of the book presents in-depth qualitative research featuring first-person testimonies that describe the self-states or 'modes' of a person with psychosis or bipolarity. These self-states involve a range of features, such as emotions, thoughts, motivations and behaviours, which manifest as patterns.
