I am a citizen of Earth. I was born in Biały Dunajec near Zakopane, Poland in 1973. From 1944-1989 Poland was a non-sovereign and satellite state remaining under the political domination of the USSR.
In 1997 I immigrated to the USA. In 1999 I started to see a therapist and very quickly I was “educated” about chemical imbalance and the drug that can remedy it like insulin does to diabetic. My therapist sent me to the General Practitioner and after 15 minutes I walked out with a prescription for Prozac. Little did I know that in the next 20 years, I’m going to spend in the bubble of illusion, comfortably numb and docile.
In 2008 I graduated from college, Nuclear Medicine Technology, with an associate degree in applied science. The same year I met my husband Eric, we got married a year later and in 2010 I gave birth to my daughter Chloe.
February 2018 I cold turkey from 60 mg of Cymbalta, my withdrawal was very severe and very long. I came back to life in September 2022, I have reclaimed my sovereignty over my body, mind and spirit. Here I am to tell my story.
