The CIJI.K bookself offers thousands of titles to help educate and connect our community. Knowledge is power and the more we read and learn, the more we understand not only about the medical side of mental illness and addiction, but the grief, loneliness and guilt associated with mental illness and addiction. The most common misconception of people suffering from mental illness and addiction is that they are alone. The narratives found in these books prove that they are not alone and that each person’s experience may be more common than one might think. Pick up a book and learn from other people’s trials, triumphs, and tribulations. Through education, poetry, and stories, we can learn how to better ourselves.
