OMG That's Me!
What started out as a couple of blog posts blossomed into a following of over 1,000,000 people—who have all read and been touched by Mowry’s stories. The most extraordinary thing he found when writing about his experiences is that the most common comment about his work is “OMG that’s me! You are telling my story. I don’t feel so alone now.”
Living with mental illness is hard, but it’s especially difficult when dealing with more than one condition at the same time. Many books about coping with mental illness focus on one disorder, such as bipolar, anxiety, panic attacks, or depression. Because Dave Mowry didn’t see any that dealt with his situation of living with bipolar disorder and other disorders simultaneously, he decided to write about it himself.
OMG That’s Me! is sometimes funny, often poignant, but always deeply honest, open, and personal. Mowry's stories let others know there is help and there is hope, and that they too can recover and live a full life. This book is a must read for family members and friends who will gain true insight into the experiences of loved ones living with a mental illness. This book is a must read for mental health professionals who will better understand the symptoms faced by their patients. And ordinary people will see the strength, resilience, and beauty of people that will shatter the stigma surrounding mental illness.
Dave Mowry has lived with bipolar disorder and severe anxiety all his adult life. Before his illness made it impossible for him to work, Dave was a successful businessman. In 1994 Dave and his wife Heather lost everything, were homeless for a year and a half, and Dave was unable to work and interact socially for fourteen years.
Today Dave lives a full life with his wife Heather in Happy Valley, Oregon. He credits Heather and his mother Margaret for his resilience.
