| Introduction | I live in Saint Paul Minnesota with my husband and two cats. I work out of my home and I write. I have been part of The Mental Health Awareness Ministry atThe Basilica od St. Mary in Mps MN for many years and a consumer of mental health services. I'm not in any way a mental health professional. My family members and many friends have dealt with mental health issues. In 1998 a friend took her life and I've wanted to create a forum to honor her memory and to talk candidly about living with a psychiatric diagnosis. |

If you could have a superpower that no one knew about what would it be? Unbridled acceptance and radical empathy are my superpowers.
