Glenn Close says: Another Kind of Madness is one of the best books I've read about the cost of stigma and silence in a family touched by mental illness. I was profoundly moved by Stephen Hinshaw's story, written beautifully, from the inside-out. It's a masterpiece.

A deeply personal memoir calling for an end to the dark shaming of mental illness

Families are riddled with untold secrets. But Stephen Hinshaw never imagined that a profound secret was kept under lock and key for 18 years within his family--that his father's mysterious absences, for months at a time, resulted from serious mental illness and involuntary hospitalizations. From the moment his father revealed the truth, during Hinshaw's first spring break from college, he knew his life would change forever.

Hinshaw calls this revelation his "psychological birth." After years of experiencing the ups and downs of his father's illness without knowing it existed, Hinshaw began to piece together the silent, often terrifying history of his father's life--in great contrast to his father's presence and love during periods of wellness. This exploration led to larger discoveries about the family saga, to Hinshaw's correctly diagnosing his father with bipolar disorder, and to his full-fledged career as a clinical and developmental psychologist and professor.

In Another Kind of Madness, Hinshaw explores the burden of living in a family "loaded" with mental illness and debunks the stigma behind it. He explains that in today's society, mental health problems still receive utter castigation--too often resulting in the loss of fundamental rights, including the inability to vote or run for office or automatic relinquishment of child custody. Through a poignant and moving family narrative, interlaced with shocking facts about how America and the world still view mental health conditions well into in the 21st century, Another Kind of Madness is a passionate call to arms regarding the importance of destigmatizing mental illness.

Rugged, Reliable, and Built to Last
I picked up this Carhartt billfold wallet a while ago, and it’s exactly what I expected from the brand—tough, well-made, and built for everyday use. It’s holding up great, even after months of being stuffed in my pocket, dropped, and tossed around. What I Like: Durable Materials: The leather and stitching are rugged and high quality. It still looks good and hasn’t shown signs of wear. Plenty of Storage: There’s more than enough space for cards, cash, and ID, and it doesn’t bulk up too much. The removable passcase is a nice bonus. Classic Look: Clean, no-nonsense design. It has a workwear vibe that fits the Carhartt name perfectly. Comfortable to Carry: Even fully loaded, it fits nicely in my back pocket without being uncomfortable or bulky. Feels Like It'll Last for Years: You can tell this wallet was made with longevity in mind. Final Thoughts: If you want a simple, reliable wallet that won’t fall apart on you, this one’s a great pick. It looks good, performs even better, and lives up to the Carhartt name. Highly recommend for anyone who values durability over flash.

Overall it's a pretty nice wallet, and its different, unique.
Color: Carhartt Brown
This is a nice wallet. I am deducting one star for the reason another buyer noted. The card pockets are extremely tight. A solution that I came up with was to take a plastic putty knife and push down inside the card pockets and stretch the material out, this helped a bunch! One thing I really like, the material is not as slick as a leather wallet, so if a person has trouble with their wallet sliding out of their pocket, I think this one would be less likely to do that. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.

This is the wallet you actually want.
Bought in late 2018, letting this wallet retire now in early 2026. Strong, durable wallet. For the money, definitely worth it.

Very Durable
This is the second wallet I've bought. Same type. First one was for a durability test. Pull, stretch, bend, twist at the seam, and it held up much better than similar wallets in the same price range. Highly recommend this wallet if you are hard on them like I am. Plenty of space for cards, cash, receipts, random papers and other items that seem to find their way into it throughout the year. And still doesn't feel big and bulky to sit on. I was a die hard trifold guy for many years because I couldn't find a bifold that could hold all my stuff in it. But this bifold holds everything and still has plenty of room for more. If you want a good quality wallet for a decent price the mossy oak Carhartt bifold is definitely the way to go, you won't be disappointed.
