Over 100 poems and other pieces are part of my exploration of my Elephants in the Room, the Phantasmic Pachyderms of trauma, my treatments, and my life story. Encompassing the 12 months following the hospitalization in Words from my Asylum, this is more than just a journal. A book for anyone interested in how suffers of mental illness might think, and feel. How we experience everything from the depths despair to the ecstatic periods of hope.
