Description
Volume 2 of Giving Myself My Voice Back!
Volume 1, was the immediate aftermath of the shocking passing of my Mum. It was the storm! It was raw emotions and complex grief! It was letters, poems and tips rolled into one. It was focusing on how I felt as a bystander, a bystander to My Mum's untreated Mental Health Illness and dependancy on alcohol for her "good thing".
Volume 2, is the survival guide, moving past the sharing of manic emotions- moving from passive to active.
If Volume 1 was letting you into "My Storm and Trauma", Volume 2 is "How to Manage it" (from my point of view, not as an expert, but as a bystander and then someone whose own Mental Health suffered after her shocking death). It is suggestions to help with healing, using a natural methaphor but keeping the same brutal, honest and sharp truths! The same unpolished writing, as a tribute, to My Mum- "My Editor!"
You had NO funeral, NO formal send off to the public, just private for us. This is your send off, showing that you matter to the whole world and you will be remembered in ink forever. A copy of these 2 books will sit in the 5 Major UK Libaries. My Love will live on for you, even after we are all gone!
Blurb:
This book is me saying goodbye & I will love you always Mum!
This book is the story of a journey—not her story, but mine!
This book is the story of YOUR journey, the one still to come!
Mental health is not a weakness or a choice, it is an illness like any other illness. It is an illness that can silence you, change your mindset, until things feel loud but look quiet. However, you can fly in a V formation and share the energy. When you are calm on the surface but paddling hard underneath, reach out to others and ask for help.
Use your call! Your voice!
Never be silenced, you matter and have great value!
Be a Duck not a Silent Warrior! You can survive your habitat!
Use your 340-degree vision (Monocular Vision) to see the joy.
When times are hard, that is just the 20-degrees right in front of you (Binocular Vision). It is a small part of the view.
Take in the whole view, not just what your mind is letting you see. So keep paddling, seek help when needed.
You are a DUCK!
You don’t have to do it alone! Letting someone else fly for a while is a way to survive, survive whilst you carry on stronger.
There are no photos or polished edits here, as I lost my Editor!
Volume 2 steps away from traditional self-help styles to offer raw, interactive suggestions, for real world trauma.
Nine Suggestions!
That will make you into a DUCK.
But the RIGHT breed of Duck!
