Welcome to the Circle: The Mental Health Book A collection of honest, intelligent, and compassionate writing about mental illness, redemption, loss, and gratitude...
I never expected to wind up in a mental hospital.
I was class treasurer, member of the homecoming court, varsity wrestling champion, head of my academic class, and a distinguished college graduate.
But life threw me an unexpected turn.
After college my mental health suddenly and severely declined.
Welcome to the Circle is my story, and the multitude of lessons I've learned along the way.
More than just memoir, the book is a meditation on the mental health journeys all of us must take to become better humans.
It is full of useful advice about how to navigate mental illness in all its difficulty and unpredictability, either for you, or for the ones you love.
What early readers are saying: "The writing has an intelligence, a vulnerability, and the most perfect use of English vocabulary.
What what all of it has in common is your openness, your honesty, your kindness, and your ability to grab the reader.
The style is so refreshing and unusual, especially in today's world." - Kathy G.
"These pieces reflect your deep compassion and committed empathy.
I read it in one sitting." - Maggie D.
"The way you have written it is just beautiful.
Your writing is full of emotion and one can feel that it's sprouting directly from your heart." - Satdeep G.
In 140 pages, the book cover mental illness and loss--the hard parts--and well as redemption and gratitude--the uplifting parts.
Dive into the essays, sit down with the poems, tick through the lists, or dig into the guides.
Mental illness is not a dead end; it can be a powerful beginning.
In the 7 years since I was hospitalized, I found effective treatment with both therapy and medications and the support of family and friends.
My mission now is to impact each person who has personally experienced or witnessed the struggle of mental illness.
To end the stigma and shame that prevents people from getting the help they need.
To show that recovery is possible, that mental illness can be survived, and that it can be transformed into a dynamic and thriving new chapter of life.
