Up's and Down's of My Life: An Emotional Journey

By Linda May Westbrook

A journey of a life in prose, from child to adult, through hardships few can imagine, this book contains the very soul of a human being. These poems are as much a timeline of their arduous life, as they are a testimonial to their growth, as individuals, and parts of a whole." - Susan Simone&, author of 'Morning Song' and 'Silent Heart' Linda Westbrook was born March 5, 1980. By all that is right and good, Linda should have had a wonderful, normal, childhood of fantasies and sunny days. But this was not the case for Linda. Through abuses and heartaches un-numbered, Linda's voice screamed out from inside and found solace with pen and paper. The poems inside catalogue 25 years of growth, change, and life, despite all odds. "Ups and Downs is a life story in prose. Told in periodic spurts of experience and honesty, it manages to convey a great breadth of emotion and an understanding of self that give genuine insight on both Westbrook's life and Dissociative Identity Disorder itself." - Amanda M. Lyons, author of 'Sacrum Umbra' and Creator of 'Scorpion's Labyrinth' a Blog about Being Present
