About the Book

This is the print version of Writer and Mental Health Speaker Joseph S. Fusaro's 2015 blog series Mental Health Mondays. After several requests from family and friends that were affected by mental illness he has now made it available in print and ebook for quick reference. A portion of the proceeds goes to the non-profit mental health organization This Is My Brave. www.thisismybrave.org I isolated from family, friends, and society for more than 5 years due to psychosis, bipolar mania, major depressive disorder, and agoraphobia. After several inpatient hospitalizations in psych units and mental hospitals I wrote this to try and enforce some of the things that I knew I needed to do in order to be social again and try to live a healthy and productive life. I hope that some of this helps you on your journey. I wish you the best, and I believe if I found peace, you can live a healthy and happy life again too.
About the Author: Joseph S. Fusaro credits music, writing, and photography with helping to relieve his psychosis and depression while living with bipolar 1 (manic depression) and General Anxiety Disorder. He found that he was able to ground his thoughts with art. He was able to slow down all of the confusion and racing thoughts. Then he would take photos of things that gave him hope, and write poetry to the photos in an attempt to replace the trauma of his attempted suicides and many hospitalizations. The last 4 years he has been busy putting the pieces back together, He always makes sure to add that he is "gratefully and patiently learning to live again." He is relentless in his efforts to change the public conversation surrounding mental health, making it an open, more educated, and less opinionated conversation. Joe has recently published 4 poetry books, a guide to recovery or management of symptoms, and a music journal of his experiences with psychosis from 2008-2010. He was a cast member in the 'This Is My Brave' New York City show in October of 2015 and has been very busy using his experience to help others realize there is hope for a positive and productive future after diagnoses. You can find Joe's poetry, blogs, music, and links to his social media at www.unreadletters.com He speaks at High Schools and Colleges with NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness). He has also recently started speaking professionally with the This Is My Brave Speakers Bureau. Speaking & Book Signing Inquiries only at godspeedkid@gmail.com.
