In 1989 Toronto, a little boy was growing up happy and loved. But as he began suffering from paralyzing anxiety for the slightest reasons, his journey through life slowly began to transform into one centered around anger, sadness, and self-destructive behavior. Plain and simple, Andrew Marshall—Drew M.—did not like himself, but unfortunately didn’t quite understand why.
In a retelling of his life experiences that is sometimes amusing and other times poignant, Andrew leads others down an interesting yet emotional path where he reveals what it felt like to have a panic attack, to be lost within the special education system, and deal with unpredictable angry outbursts. While revealing how he struggled to find answers on his own, Andrew provides an eye-opening glimpse into how he finally took control of his own mental health and identified his challenges, learned how to deal with them, and ultimately found the happiness he knew he deserved.
My Experience shares the true story of one man’s journey to overcome his mental health challenges and walk out of the darkness and into a bright new world.
