Thank you for being here TODAY because you being here? is not a coincidence… We are all meant to be here… I want to share this TRIUMPH, this accomplishment with all of you. You have been my driving force, my motivation.
This book has been written with you in mind. HAVE YOU EVER FELT THOSE BUTTERFLIES, NERVES, INSECURITIES? I have been there and have realized all is part of the journey of life. Taking the time to look at myself, my wishes and desires, my fears and resolutions with determination and acting upon them has kept me functional.
Talking about mental health openly and sharing my journey and experiences, hasn’t been easy. As a Bipolar II patient, I’ve gone through MANY stages, involving both ups and downs. As I age, I keep discovering the challenges brought forth by my condition.
I HAVE TIME TRAVELED IN MY HEAD, THOUSANDS OF TIMES, THROUGH THE HARDEST AND MOST DESOLATE MOMENTS OF MY LIFE. I have acknowledged my ignorance and my failures.
I always knew I was much more because I know I AM TRIPOLAR.
Being TRIPOLAR has validated and helped me to understand the journey. It has given me the respect for my own condition, and a reason to always be caring and kind with myself.
My story has been written and today I am sharing it with the world.
If you have ever suffered emotional distress, anxiety, panic attacks, mood changes… MY BOOK IS HERE FOR YOU!
Sometimes all we need is PEOPLE AROUND US THAT CARE, that care enough to see us well.
If you have a friend, a family member or a colleague that has struggled in any form with mental distress or mental illness, I hope my book gives you some insights on the way in which you can help.
Let’s work together to create awareness and to reach out to others, because… I AM DETERMINED TO BEAT THE STIGMA OF BIPOLARITY. Being bipolar is an AMAZING GIFT WE NEED TO UNRAVEL!
BE HAPPY, BE SAFE, LOVE YOURSELF AND WALK YOUR JOURNEY… WE ARE HERE TO HELP!
THIS IS THE START OF A DISCOVERY… BECAUSE BEING BIPOLAR FOR ME MEANS WE HAVE ONE BODY AND TWO HEARTS…
If someone ever asks you: ARE YOU BIPOLAR? Repeat after me.. “I am not bipolar, I am TRIpolar.” I have a gift inside of me and I am ready to unravel it!
THANK YOU AND ENJOY THE EVENING!
