I’ve got big news! I’m releasing my book today!

Did you know today is World Bipolar Day? March 30th, Vincent Van Gogh’s birthday, was established as World Bipolar Day in order to fight social stigma and eliminate discrimination associated with bipolar.

I want to honor World Bipolar Day by releasing my new book, Many Pathways: 25 Real-Life Stories of Mental Illness & Recovery. It’s time to change the narrative about serious mental illness. My hope is that this book can help people picture words like schizophrenia, bipolar, psychosis, and mental illness differently in their minds. I want to spark a shift from fear of these terms to curiosity instead. And then from curiosity to admiration for the people who navigate these many pathways.

I'm so excited to be able to help share Michelle Hammer’s story (.nyc) of her journey with schizophrenia.

A lot of people, like Michelle, start experiencing hallucinations as a kid. It can take decades before someone is willing to use the scary term of "schizophrenia" to address what is really going on. Michelle's story is a really important reminder that if we react to schizophrenia with a productive, positive and accepting attitude it doesn't need to ruin lives and relationships.

No more "pamphlets with some person crying on the cover" please!
