Preface

A couple of things about my book. When you write a memoir, they tell you it’s important to figure out what your voice is. I think what I’ve learned in putting this book together is that my voice is all over the map. It’s just my personality. I jump around a lot. Part of it is that I have a lot of things going on in my life at all times, but part of it is just my personality. As you will learn in these pages, I have a few issues. I struggle on a daily basis with general anxiety disorder, occasional depression, a bit of OCD, and a host of autoimmune diseases that can make life really tough sometimes. I think I struggle day-to-day in ways that most “rock stars” don’t. But hey, that’s part of the reason I wrote this book. Maybe some of you out there will find me more relatable. Maybe some of the things that I say will help you cope with whatever disorder or issue that you are experiencing. The bottom line is, this is how I talk. I am what I am, and I wasn’t about to try and make it all pretty just because I was writing a book. Just like you are you, this is me. Cool? OK, let’s get on with the story.
