Description

OMG That’s Me! is poignant, sometimes funny, but always deeply honest, open, and personal. Mowry's stories lets folks living with a mental illness know they are not alone, that there is help and there is hope, and that they too can recover and live a full life. This book is a must read for family members and friends who will gain true insight into the experiences of loved ones living with a mental illness. This book is a must read for mental health professionals who will better understand the symptoms faced by their patients. And OMG That’s Me! Is a must read for everyday people who will see the strength and resilience of people living with mental illness.

What started out as a couple of blog posts blossomed into a following of over 1,000,000 people—who have all read and been touched by Mowry’s stories. The most extraordinary thing he found when writing about his experiences is that the most common comment about his work is “OMG that’s me. You are telling my story. I don’t feel so alone now.”

Living with mental illness is hard, but it’s especially difficult when dealing with more than one condition at the same time. Many books about coping with mental illness focus on one disorder, such as anxiety, panic attacks, or depression. Because Dave Mowry didn’t see any that dealt with his situation of living with multiple disorders simultaneously, he decided to write about it himself.
