The Mind Surfer is journalist Erica Crompton's memoir, a collection of first-person prose, and journalism that details exactly what psychosis is and how she learned to manage it in her late teens to mid-thirties. This book is aimed at young and old people whose lives have been touched by psychosis: themselves, their loved ones and their caregivers. It's written like a magazine: crammed with first-person features, expert tips, and the prose is short and to the point or 'Literary Journalism'. She hopes this helps engage a younger audience as well as more established patients with psychosis which affects 1 in 20 and is most likely to take a grip in the late teens to early twenties.
