10 THINGS I WISH I KNEW WHEN I WAS DIAGNOSED
I wrote a handy ten point guide that serves as combination pep talk/practical advice. It's exactly what I needed to hear after I was diagnosed. And it's free!
All I ask is that you subscribe to my mailing list. I feel like everybody says this nowadays, but I almost never send out emails. That's the truth. In fact, I haven't even sent out one yet and I started last December. You're safe with me, I promise.
You'll get the guide via email and then probably not another email for at least a month or two. (Maybe longer.) I work full-time as a writer, so I'm only doing this to help my fellow sufferers, not to get your money.
I started this website as a labor of love (with no investments or backing) because I want to provide help for people like myself who really needed a resource.
