Growing Pains

Summary

From being abandoned in the hospital at birth, living with a clinically diagnosed schizophrenic mother, and dealing with a somewhat absent alcoholic father. To fighting through epilepsy during my teenage years and some of my adulthood. From dealing with the heartbreaks and betrayals of relationships and friendships. To laying my dreams down, literally. 

From battling anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation in my adulthood, to practicing New Age beliefs and Yoruba, "the beliefs of 'my people'", religion, to becoming homeless and house hopping. I share with you the to's and fro's of my pain and my growth.
