"I Never Promised You A Rose Garden" by Joanne Greenberg is a really good book about a young girl who has mental problems and goes to a mental hospital to try and fix her problems.

Here is an Amazon list of the best books about mental health:

1. A Legacy of Madness: Recovering My Family from Generations of Mental Illness by Tom Davis.

The list author says:

"Engrossing book that deals with generations of a family that suffered through self-destruction"

2. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

The list author says:

"Perhaps the most riveting book ever written about mental health, and it was way ahead of its time."

3. A Beautiful Mind by Sylvia Nasar

The list author says:

"Perhaps the most sensitive portrayal of mental health every written."

4. Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

5. The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger

6. An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness by Kay Redfield Jamison
