October Is National Depression and Mental Health Awareness a

 I couldn't put it down. The trauma was so real. I continued reading in hopes of getting to the healing. Thankfully, each chapter offered advice. I liked how the author referenced mental illness references and tips at the end of each chapter. Although it was hard to read her experience, at times, I appreciated the transparency. Wow! I thank God you are able to share your story. You will continually help many. Thank you. 

 Love love the book and the transparency I could read over and over again please if you get a chance please read the book u feel every emotion the author wrote 10 stars Great Job !!! 

 This author is a gifted writer. She holds your attention and broaden your imagination. Her focus on mental illness and living with someone who suffers from mental illness is extraordinary. I read this book in 24 hours, I couldn't put it down because I wanted to see what the outcome would be and if there would be any help for this family. Mental Health is definitely a reality. Thank you Cynthia Howell for sharing your story. 

The book was a great read. I liked the transparency and how she put facts at the end of each chapter. I thought it was insightful. You felt what the author was going through. Got a few chuckles out of some of the language she used. So down to earth and real. In my family there is mental illness, and it gave me some insight to the issue. Even her own story in the last few chapters was transparent. She doesn't look like what she been through. God had a purpose for her life, and she walked into her purpose.

 "Crazy Didn't Get Me: Preparation For My Destiny". Such an awesome book. Once I started reading I could hardly put it down. The author has presented her information so interestingly, clearly, and succinctly, it makes you feel as if she is right Infront of you telling her history .This is a 'MUST READ' for everyone. I love how the author holds her readers' interest throughout the book and how she gave mental health 'fact-findings' at the end of each chapter. 

 I purchased this book as support for mental health awareness since I am dealing with someone suffering with mental health issues in my family. I'm not much of a book reader, actually I hate to read. I decided that I would read at least one chapter a day. So I started my chapter and didn't put the book down until I had finished it. It was just AWSOME!!! 

It was like the author was sitting with you and telling you her story. Amazing how she came out of such darkness and turned it to light. shining a spotlight on mental illness…. 

  I don't read often but once I received this book in the mail and started reading it I just couldn't put it down and the informational insight at the end of each chapter is awesome what ya'll waiting on order your copy now you want be sorry. 

Pay attention to unusual behaviors. Here are just a few signs:

• Confused thinking.
• Avoiding friends and social activities.
• Difficulty relating to or understanding others.
• Strong feelings of irritation or anger.

When you observe the symptoms, don't deny what you are seeing. It's REAL! Operating in denial is only going to prolong the process and waste precious time that you do not have.

Act quickly in seeking professional treatment! The sooner treatment begins, the better the chance of living an ordinary, productive and fulfilling life.
