Over two weeks, she underwent myriad psychological tests, participated in numerous therapy sessions, connected with fellow patients and experienced profound breakthroughs, such as when a doctor noted, “There is a you \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003einside \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethat feels invisible to those looking at you from the outside.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eMen Have Called Her Crazy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Tendler recounts her hospital experience as well as pivotal moments in her life that preceded and followed.
