Having been diagnosed as bipolar, with psychotic disorders, having

attempted suicide and having a history of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

and anxiety attacks, I have been prescribed medication to alter my

behavior and mood. Some of the medication was helpful, but some was

not.

I learned that when I'm in the will of God, my mind is stable; when I go on

my own path and step out of the Lord's plan, I have issues. The Lord has

provided men and women with the gift of hearing and listening and talent

to help people like me and others. Just as the Lord provides rain as a

resource for flowers and trees, these men and women are resources for a

sound mind.

God's grace and mercy have been exceedingly abundant in my life, and I

pray that scriptures, testimonials, and prophetic words in this book will

help combat the woes of the mind and incite change and freedom. But,

"before you can be free you must acknowledge you are bound."
