Introduction to Surviving and More

This is an introduction to a book I have recently finished.  I welcome any comments.


This is the story of my life which includes a feeling of being different, too tall and too shy.  It includes a mental illness that was dormant until my late teens, early adulthood.  The people involved in my life include, family, girlfriends, boyfriends and people I have met in the mental health community.  This story is about these people and about our relationships.  It is about anger and being annoyed.  It's about people trying to support each, yet sometimes making things worse.

In the mental health community, we have beautiful, good people who have an illness.  I am hoping we can look past our unusual behavior and love who's inside.
