Rising Up

This is the story of Ian Weller. It starts at the educational diagnosis in elementary school and spans to close to the present day. It's a rollercoaster ride of a journey. It tells of his time in the public school system in Northern Michigan to being his own person. This is told from the point of view of Ian alone. Others that may be mentioned are only hinted by their first initial and may recall things differently. Ian went to great lengths to conceal how he felt during much of the time periods.There are poems he has written from different time periods of life and help illustrate the mental and emotional state he was in. Some have never been published before, while some are in his other work or blog website. Nothing is watered down or sugar coated, this story is full of raw emotion.?If one person with the right help can do so much, imagine what others on the spectrum can do with the right support.
