"Unflinching" Bipolar UK
"Rosie is an inspiration" Dua Lipa
"Full of humour and hope" Hannah Murray, author of The Make-Believe
"Raw, honest and surprisingly upbeat" Sunday Times

In 2018, model Rosie Viva experienced a psychotic episode at Stansted Airport that led to her arrest and the evacuation of the terminal. What followed was a diagnosis of bipolar disorder - and a life completely turned upside down.

In Completely Normal and Totally Fine, Rosie shares a raw, honest and often darkly funny mental health memoir, charting:
- The extreme highs of mania
- The isolating lows of depression
- The long, complex journey toward stability and recovery

With humour, vulnerability and insight, she explores how bipolar reshaped her understanding of identity, relationships, love and purpose - while challenging the stigma around mental illness.

This is more than a story about bipolar disorder.
It's a book about survival, self-acceptance and finding hope in the chaos.

Whether you live with bipolar, support someone who does, or want to better understand the realities of mental illness, this is a moving and ultimately uplifting story that reminds us: you are not alone.

"Bursts with authenticity and warmth - a gift to anyone touched by bipolar." Leanne Toshiko Simpson
"A fittingly open and honest account of what happens when you lose your mind." Service95
