Best patient memoirs?

In the context of writing a book about brain/mind research, I want to understand more about how the disorders I am writing about impact individuals. For this, I'm (in part) turning to patient memoirs. Any recommendations?

Here are a two I'm reading:

Depression:

Schizophrenia:

@NicoleCRust I'm not sure if I'd call it a patient memoir, but Tony Judt's "The Memory Chalet" is a stunning book.

Thank you! Looks great even outside this particular project.
