Authentic Truths

Author: Authentic Truths

Hi! My name is Lisa. I am a blogger, wife, mother and grandmother. I designed Authentic Truths to share useful tips to managing bipolar disorder, share my colorful personal journey (it’s not always good, but it is authentic and raw), offer hope and a distinct look at faith and bipolar disorder. Additionally, I enjoy writing on other topics such as poetry, life changes, and other Christian based content. I have a passion for speaking and advocating for those surviving mental illness. By day I am a church administrator, Stephen Minister, and active member of my church. I look forward to dialogue and open discussion relating to mental health and current topics of interest. See you there!
