As mentioned in the title, this is my personal recovery story with my personal insights. I have a huge fear that those who read my book will think I am too mentally ill to be helping others. However, I also have hope that those with serious mental illness can read this book and be inspired to not give up on themselves simply because they have mental illness.

Having mental illness is not something I am proud of, but I have worked hard to no longer feel ashamed. I hid my mental illness for far too long. I am grateful for being alive despite my various suicide attempts. I am strong, relient, and loveable!
