Mental health
An honest, first-hand view of what living with mental illness can feel like.
About the book
When your own thoughts turn against you
What is it like when your own mind becomes a place of fear? And what does it take to find your way back to everyday life?
In Rising Resilience, Karianne shares her experience of mental illness with remarkable honesty: the isolation, the turning points, the people who truly helped, and the everyday gratitude that grew on the other side.
It is not a book about being fixed. It is a book about being more than your illness, and about the resilience that can quietly grow in each of us, even in hopelessness.
“I am living proof that it is possible to rise again after a crisis.”
Karianne Mikalsen, Rising Resilience
The rest of the journey is waiting inside the book.
