"Simply Because We Are Human is a collection of the writer's honest interactions with mental illness.  The descriptive, poetic memories and vignettes trace her understanding, acceptance, and the barriers she tried to run away from.  Her story is both common and exceptional, and dares to expose her journey to mental health wide open to the light"
