When your mental illness shows up and knocks you off of your new found high. The pieces are scattered all over the ground, and you are on your knees with your arms outstretched reaching for the broken fragments of your life knowing you have to rebuild for the umpteenth time and wondering where you will find the strength or desire.
A Journey With You 
❤ You tried ❤ and you learned a few new songs along the way. Much Love!

Thank you! It was more my anxiety than my schizophrenia.

I am so sorry. You should remain proud that you tried, because that took strength. Though I imagine no words right now might be able to comfort you, please know you remain an inspiration to others.
I wish I could help you in some way. You are an amazing human being who deserves all the best. One day at time, and hugs to you.

My anxiety was too severe. When I feel better about it, I will write down what happened.

Well, let me lift you up. I bought your book, Pills, Poetry & Prose: Life with Schizophrenia, a couple of years ago and put it in my “to be read pile.” I picked it up last night and Rebecca, your poetry is divine. So sensitive, poignant, and beautiful. You’re a writer, a poet, and a wounded healer. Please know how talented you are. Just write.
