    About this ebook

    Do you want to see the reality behind those who have a mental illness or a substance abuse problem? This book is raw. This book is real. It is a true story about a life that most people don't have insight into. I have sat on this book for over ten years because I felt it would invade my privacy. After a lot of thought, I have decided to release it. This book does not connect to details outside the realm of normality for shock value. My writing is done with the purpose of connecting ideas of human worth, allowing people to learn, and growth. The following describes the book in more detail:

    ABOUT THE BOOK:
    Brief Synopsis

    It begins with me suffering from chronic mental health problems, my family abandoned me, and I lived in a group home. I was on Social Security, and my life had fallen to pieces. My parents had a sufficient income that rewarded me with a life of privilege, but this would all vanish. I would fall hard, and it would begin in the eighth grade. This book is about mental health and substance abuse at first glance. However, it encompasses many more subjects and details the struggles I faced in my life. Luckily, I was able to climb out of that a hole and now live in a very decent manner. The book is about understanding human nature, and it is full of symbolism, metaphors, and comments that will linger in your mind.
