Book excerpt: BETRAYED BY SELF plunges the reader into the untamed world of psychiatry through the accounts of a psychiatric resident as he struggles amidst four years in the trenches of mental illness. A unique viewpoint told through the eyes of an unlikely doctor who often has more in common with his patients than his colleagues. These accounts provided by a man who rose from homelessness, and overwhelming odds, to fulfill an implausible journey of discovery. In abandoning his attempt to fit the mold of the traditional physician, he uncovers a significant capacity to connect with those who have been all but rejected by traditional medicine. Thrusting headfirst into stories of suffering, he reveals the possibility for empathic understanding while caring for those stricken by psychosis, all while struggling to maintain his own sanity within the added strain of psychiatric residency. This book recounts experiences as raw as they occurred in a behind-the-curtain look at doctors in training and the tragic, fascinating, and often painfully intriguing stories of the patients they encounter.

Dave has fervently sought redemption from God, but his troubles are far from over. His wife, Madeline, vows never to forgive him for selfishly destroying their family. Constant images of betrayal shove Madeline into divorce court, where the division of property ignites a nasty battle over the controlling interest in DMI, the multi-million dollar family business. She wants more than Dave can give and refuses to settle for less than thirteen years of marriage warrants. Madeline is determined not to lose again. Although the marriage is over, their professional bond can't be broken. She ends up with a seat on the board of directors and an executive office down the hall from Dave. Once the dust settles and the divorce is finalized, Dave accepts the consequences of his decision as irrevocable. His family is gone, but he remains certain that God has a plan for him and DMI. He's prepared to move on, but Madeline is enraged by Dave's persistent sense of peace and his ongoing connection with Sherry, the woman who ruined their lives. Madeline becomes unhinged, tormented by her pain, and obsessed with righting a terrible wrong. In the midst of all this chaos, Dave and Madeline's children are suffering. When an unspeakable tragedy occurs, they're forced to look at their individual contributions to this web of drama. Unless the Mitchell family learns the true meaning of unconditional love, the power of forgiveness, and God's amazing grace, they could be stuck on this tragic path for years to come.
