NAMI San Diego introduces their first published book:

Our Stories:
101 things we know now we wish we knew then

On Thursday, March 4, 2010, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI San Diego) will be holding a book signing with authors of their newly published first book.

NAMI San Diego, in partnership with Wisdom Legacy, has created a book that focuses on lessons people have learned from dealing with mental illness. In this book, 42 people trace their journey along the road of mental illness from the onset of the condition to recovery. The authors focus on what they have learned about mental illness and reflect on life lessons they have learned from the road they have traveled. They share moments of great pain to great joy and stories range from personal lived experience with a mental illness to having a sibling, child, or parent with a mental illness. The goal was to have a least one story that each person can relate to.

Oftentimes people dealing with mental illness (either their own or that of a loved one) feel alone, isolated and unsure about the future. This moving book will allow them to not feel so alone and to know that NAMI is there to walk the path of recovery with them. It is a powerful and educational publication with proceeds from its sale going to NAMI San Diego.
