I am Louisa. I am a wife, a mum of 2 boys, a writer and a loyal friend to some truly wonderful people.  I am living an authentic life with my mental illness.

Loupy Lou  – Loupy is a nickname my best guyfriend calls me, because he knows me well and knows that yes I am ‘Loupy’. Lou is what most of my close friends call me. Those who know the journey I have travelled, see me for the person who I am truly am and accept me, faults and all. So it seems fitting as I share myself with you that you get to know me as Loupy Lou.

Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You. –Dr Seuss
