À propos de cet audio
Canadians fell in love with Pierre Elliott Trudeau’s beautiful and high-spirited bride when he brought her to the world stage as the youngest First Lady in the history of the country.
But the situation wasn’t as rosy as it seemed. Plagued by mood swings and unprepared for public life, Margaret became increasingly isolated at 24 Sussex, as her depression alternated with bouts of mania. As her behavior became more puzzling - even to Margaret herself - she did her best to mother her three young sons and stand by her husband. She finally broke down soon after their marriage dissolved.
As time went by, Margaret achieved a fragile stability, remarrying and bearing two more children. But the tragic loss of her son, Michel, in a skiing accident and the passing of Pierre Trudeau a few years later were too much to bear, and Margaret became severely ill.
After years of struggle to find the right doctors and the right treatment, Margaret has rebuilt her life once again. At 62, she is a vibrant, happy, and healthy woman who is an inspiration to us all.
Also included in Changing My Mind are essays by three of Canada’s pre-eminent mental health professionals who explore some of the treatments available to patients today.

A great book!
This will go down as one of my all time favourite books! The story of Margaret Trudeau is both difficult and inspirational. Her journey is one that left me in awe. As a 50+ year old Canadian woman I am ashamed to say that I had very little knowledge of her and her struggles. This book explains it in a way that allowed me to feel sad and happy for her throughout. I also learned so much about mental health in reading her book. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys memoirs and or reading about Canadian historical (women) figures and or is interested in leaning more about mental or brain health.
