Darwinian Mystics: Recent Episodes
Tricia M Foster
Amber Johnson is sixteen when she begins to have hallucinations and anxiety attacks. After a psychiatrist diagnoses her with bipolar disorder, Amber desperately medicates herself to escape her terrifying episodes. She soon discovers, however, that she is not damaged, but uniquely gifted.
Who's going to love me now? I can't believe that's the first stupid thought that came to mind. It sounds so desperate. The question keeps creeping back into my head, though, like some obnoxious troll.
I can't keep the tears from streaming down my face as I saddle my horse. My breath comes in shattered waves. I try to push the emotion down by focusing on each clasp, but the harder I try to hold on, the more the world around me begins to blur.
