Our parents bought baby name books, probably argued over our names. Or maybe at the last minute they thought of a name out of thin air.
However, there is no one called Nutjobon their birth certificate in the face of this planet, I am almost sure of that. If there is… please contact us. We would like to know how that happened.
It’s not on my birth certificate!
So, do not allow anyone to call, refer, nickname, label, describe you by any degrading name. And do not do the same to others too.
Lets be mentally aware. It is not about political correctness.
It is about correctness!
If you are on Pinterest, please share and lets create lots of mental awareness. Thank you!
Zoe met Eze (Chuck) in the 14th year of what turned out to be an 18 year ‘journey’ with mental illness. They got married less than a year of meeting with Zoe fully knowing Chuck had a diagnosis of mental illness. In the 18th year, Chuck defied the odds of mental illness. A consultant psychiatrist signed him off the mental health system with a bill of NO MENTAL ILLNESS. The consultant was so amazed by Chuck’s astonishing recovery that he even questioned how Chuck was diagnosed with mental illness all those years before, in the first place! Today Chuck is free from medication, its dependency and hospitalizations. Zoe’s award nominated book, DEFYING THE ODDS, chronicles the highs and ‘lows’ of this journey. Zoe, often writing from the standpoint of a caregiver, clearly understands that mental illness does not only affect an individual challenged with the disease, but also families, marriages and society as a whole.
