Description: My Colour-Coded Life is an autobiography of one brave woman's life weighed down with mental illness. Using a pseudonym and changed names for legal reasons, the author shares her fascinating experiences. The story begins with her distrust of her husband in 2000, and in 2005, her diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder. Along the way, we learn of her battle with colours and the messages she took from them-and also from food, TV, radio, music, newspapers, her guitar music, missing things, other people's clothes, and even products on the shelves. Once trust was gained in Music, she grips onto inspirational lyrics to pull her out of the quagmire she found herself sinking into. In searing honesty, she shares her triggers and offers insight on what she knows about her relapses. In the beginning, she feared colours, but over time they empowered her, made her feel blessed and able to take control of her life. My Colour-Coded Life offers readers the chance to walk in the shoes of someone who's suffered greatly. Ideally, it will educate neurotypical readers and destigmatize mental illness along the way. Megan Jackson Hall is a retired Catholic School teacher, who possesses a graduate degree in Curriculum and Technology from the University of Phoenix. She has suffered with a mental health illness for twenty years. She was first diagnosed as schizophrenic in 2005, but later had her diagnosis adjusted to schizoaffective disorder, which marries symptoms of a mood disorder with those of schizophrenia. She lives alone in British Columbia and has two beautiful daughters. mycolourcodedlife@ /p>
