When I had it at 21, I was told by psychologist's that it affected people in from 40-60, primarily women. The stats have changed in 20 years! Now, it affects young people. I was able to turn my life around and take control. So, I thought writing about it, may help someone else out there. I was literally cured in a sweat lodge ceremony by an Indigenous Medicine Man from the Pala Indian Reservation in Pala, California. There are many alternative modalities that can help people in addition to therapy. (less)

Shawna’s Quotes

“A kind of light spread out from her.
And everything changed color.
And the world opened out.
And a day was good to awaken to.
And there was no limits to anything.
And the people of the world were good and handsome.
And I was not afraid anymore.”
― John Steinbeck
