"I Had A Black Dog is Matthew Johnsone's illuminating, moving, and ultimately uplifting book provides insights into what it is like to live with a Black Dog and the strength and support that can be found within and around us to tame it. Black Dog can be a terrible beast, but bringing him out of the shadows is the first step towards recovery"--from the back cover.
