Traumatic events never leave lives untouched, but often the effects hide beneath the surface. At only 20 years of age, a secret forced upon her pushes Arnita over the edge and she suffers a nervous breakdown with a subsequent diagnosis of bipolar disorder many years later. How can she overcome an illness she doesn’t understand, find courage to share the truth of skeletons in her closet and encourage others to do the same?

Through her shared story, original poetry and short pieces, Arnita Ware takes a look through the window of her soul, daring the reader to open up and tell their own hidden story too.
