I am a 58 year old woman living with schizophrenia and my creative endeavors allow me to express myself and help me to cope with this illness. I am also an artist, a photographer and I do bead work. I have self published three books of my poetry, art and photography. / I am unemployed- When I was younger I had high aspirations but because of my illness I never reached those goals. But through my creative endeavors, medication,, therapy and electoconvulsive therapy I have made a life for myself. I feel as if I have gained a purpose in life on this planet.
