- Not my own personal experience obviously, but “Burn Rate: Launching a Startup and Losing My Mind” by Andy Dunn talks about the kind of mental breakdown you’re describing. It’s a surprisingly engaging and self-aware book about manic depression and how common it is in the startup world.
- Burn Rate - written by Andy Dunn, the founder of Bonobos. It’s part startup story part mental health story. It’s very well written and goes into deep detail about his struggle with bi-polar disorder.
Project Hail Mary, The Martian, and Artemis - science fiction books by Andy Weir. All very different and very technical. I like Project Hail Mary the most. One of the best sci-fi books I’ve ever read.
Turn the Ship Around, by David Marquet. It’s a story about turning followers into leaders from the perspective of a military submarine captain. I’ve read dozens of management and leadership book over the years, but this one really resonated with me.
