Crescent Springs, KY, USA – WEBWIRE – Wednesday, January 29, 2025

What does it feel like to navigate life through the lens of bipolar disorder? “Bi-Polaroid,” David Samuelson’s powerful and unfiltered collection of poetry, short stories, diary entries, and dramatic excerpts, invites readers into the raw, tumultuous landscape of living with bipolar disorder.

Spanning nearly three decades, with pieces written from 1974 to 2001, this book stands as a lasting legacy, capturing both the manic highs and depressive lows that marked Samuelson’s life. Through these deeply personal and expressive works, “Bi-Polaroid” provides a heartfelt portrait of mental health struggles while celebrating the resilience of the human spirit.

Tony Samuelson, who shares the same diagnosis as his late brother, honors David’s legacy with a heartfelt promise he made to continue spreading joy and understanding.

Tony is committed to sharing David’s work with a larger audience and has collaborated on adaptations of “Bi-Polaroid” for film and television. This powerful story will soon come to life on screen through a Summit Entertainment movie, with a TV series also in development, inspired by David’s unique storytelling.

“Bi-Polaroid” speaks to anyone who has wrestled with personal struggles or knows someone who has. Through its mix of personal reflections, imaginative narratives, and lyrical poems, the book connects deeply with readers looking for honest and expressive accounts of life’s highs and lows. This compilation invites readers to explore Samuelson’s concept of “boxeteen”—finding happiness in ways that don’t harm oneself or others—a message that resonates profoundly today.
