I received my BA degree in Psychology in 2001 and in 2003 I was diagnosed with the most debilitating mental illness known to man, schizophrenia. I have been hospitalized 10 or more times. I didn't let this stop me. I learned everything I could about schizophrenia and mood swings. I learned how not to act. How to work with people. I began giving mental health workshops in my community and I was awarded as a Baynews9 every day hero seen by two million. I wrote my books, " Don't call me crazy! I'm just in love," as a fiction inspired by my true story. I write this to tell you that any dream is possible. You can become a successful author it's all about learning who your target market is and taking courses to learn how to market. You can read my books at www.swiyyah.com
