Infos

It is estimated that 9.7 percent of all Americans suffer from some type of mood disorder. And this estimate does not include people who have yet been diagnosed. This book is about my life experience growing up in a family where my grandmother was bipolar, my brother became schizophrenic due to a drug overdose, my mother became bipolar due to a mental breakdown, and how I became bipolar due to a mental breakdown at age twenty-three while working in corporate America and being faced with a lot of responsibility.The book tells how my ungrateful experience working for corporate America drove me to move to Hawaii in pursuit of becoming an astronaut, and how after attending college in Hawaii and becoming grounded, my goal of becoming an astronaut changed.It talks how I was interviewed by Department of Defense contractors and a headhunter for Jet Propulsion Lab and made the CIA on-call list and FBI special agent recruiting list after graduating college, all while being bipolar. It also talks about my journey as a martial artist and how I tried to open up a school while receiving social security disability for my mental illness. And it also talks of the many times I almost became homeless and the time I was arrested and tortured for being mistaken as homeless as a result of being bipolar.Like most people who suffer from bipolar mental illness, my book has the ups and downs of my life and includes the good and the bad. But most importantly, my book shed light on how I was able to take control of my mental illness through medicine and management techniques that can benefit people who have a mental illness, treat people with mental illness, or know someone with a mental illness. This book is a guide for people who want to take control of their mood disorder and is based on my true story of me having a mental illness and finding ways to manage my condition, which I now share with you.
