Crazy & Functional Michelle L Manning

Can your life be so crazy that it ends up making you functional?
If crazy can be influenced by a life beginning in rodeo and functional can be influenced by a profession as a therapist, then the answer is easy: You decide.

What it is to be "crazy" and what it is to be "functional" are relative to the individual. Sometimes, it takes a lifetime to distinguish between the two. And sometimes, it takes a book filled with a lifetime's worth of experiences. Even those considered crazy.

OCD? It's in there. Anxiety? In there. Trauma? Take a number. Substance abuse? All depends on how you define "abuse."

Yet despite the titillation from the full-frontal crazy, the heart of this story is in resilience. And if you think resilience can only come from positivity, enlightenment, or deep breaths... think again.
