Opis

"I was forced to tear everything down and restart from the ground up. I had to turn to my inspirations. I had to take every piece of good advice I had ever recieved from a friend, family member, favorite artist, musician, or writer, and apply these things to my life. We are all a combination of everything we have ever sensed in our lives and it is up to us as to whether we grow into the light or the dark. In my case I had to grow out of the dark into the light. I had to release all of the negative that I had learned, and become the light and positivity that for so long I secretly admired more than anything in this world." One's 20's is usually a time of graduating college, finding a job, finding love, and beginning to make plans for a family and a future. This is not always the case for people with mental illness. It is often a time of loss, depression, medication trials, hospitalizations, and alienation. This piece of Joseph S. Fusaro's journal starts out while he was attempting to run away from his reality, which was bipolar psychosis at Venice Beach California in 2008. For some reason, throughout his lifelong fight with the racing thoughts he kept thinking that there was going to be a tragic and abrupt ending. Somehow through writing, he was able to create a little light, and a little more time. "This collection of heartfelt poems provides hope for the lost, instills a sense of belonging in those who have fallen out of touch with loved ones, and most of all, reminds us that love always wins." - Jennifer Marshall (Creator of This Is My Brave) Joe performed for the mental health awareness organization "This Is My Brave" in New York City on October 4th, 2015 and will be donating 12% of the proceeds from this book to the non-profit This Is My Brave. www.thisismybrave.org Depression, Mania, Anxiety, Psychosis, Suicide, and Addiction are words that need to be embraced and spoken freely.
