Book excerpt: In the middle of the quarantine for COVID-19 after reading one memoir after another Joshua Murphy Dobbs found the inspiration to write his own memoir. After surfing Facebook coming across a post similar to this one:If you don't come out of this quarantine with:- A new skill- Your side hustle started- More knowledgeYou never lacked time, you lacked discipline. False- You are doing just fine.- We are going through a collective traumatic experience- Not everyone has the privilege of turning a pandemic into something fun or productive. He really connected with the sarcasm of the post. Like many others with nothing but time on his hands while out of work his story unfolded in rapid succession in just eight days. His psychiatrist asked him if he was manic after he shared the news that he had just written an entire book since his last Telehealth appointment with her. The book travels through his childhood of finding out he was biracial to a diagnosis of bipolar 1 while in a psych ward in the Army. His struggles to find the right mix of medications would land him in jail more than once. The story follows his life giving the reader hope. Even though the story follows his life as closely as it can, being a bipolar writer weaves the reader in and out of his life on a roller coaster. In the end his tattoos remind him of who he will become.
