Self published book : Kerin Kelliher

My name is Kerin Kelliher. I am a 21 year old from Perth, Western Australia. I have lived my life with severe depression. I was diagnosed with depression at a young age. This exposed me to emotions not normally felt so severely. I had councilling, therapy, medication and all that. I found that the best remedy was a combination of the right medication and some sort of outlet. That outlet happened to be writing. Over the years I filled countless journals with my ramblings, sometimes not making any sense, but for the most part I was creating paragraphs of words with the most powerful emotions fuelling them. I decided to publish a book for just myself so I have something to hold if anything happened to my original journals. I came to the realisation that if my writing helped me, maybe they could help someone else who's struggling to find words for the way they feel. My goal is to publish a beautiful book for my safekeeping, and if someone else out there can benefit from it also would be great, but I'd never force my opinions onto the reader. Read my words, take what you will from them, interpret them however you like... It's up to you.
