Acid Rain Like Rainbows in the Sky

Acid Rain Like Rainbows in the Sky is a book about my life as a bipolar young adult dealing with a mental illness. I did well in school because my parents taught me that school was a way to get out of poverty. I came to the United States at the age of nine, and high school was the time of my life where I developed a sense of identity. I went on to college at the University of Arizona at the age of seventeen and also ran for a community college in Tucson, Arizona. I went to nationals with the cross-country team. My coach saw that I had potential and pressured me. As a result, I had a nervous breakdown at the age of nineteen and dropped out of college for a semester and sought psychiatric help: I was diagnosed bipolar. After college, I worked doing quality control, teaching and waiting tables for about nine years. At the age of twenty-eight, I met Joey, with whom I had my first intimate relationship. He is my best friend, and I would like to marry him someday.
