I think this really underscores why I love your writing. The journey to sanity on OUR terms is very different from growing up sane and descending into madness for other reasons. That said, I suspect, albeit I don't know this, Sheri, that this particular life's arc is very different kind of hero's journey, and it also leads to a far deeper understanding not only of the self/psyche, but of others, for we are forced to do the psychological work internally simple to avoid imploding.
