Unlike my first four poetry books, this is my autobiography written for all those who wish to better understand mental illnesses. Once I began compiling this book I could feel the release of all my built up pressure and anxiety. This has truly helped me understand myself and even more importantly has enlightened me. My odyssey began as a young woman and has shaped me into who I am today. I hope you enjoy my sketches as this is first time that I have included them in one of my books. Once again it's been my pleasure. Enjoy
