Lynn Rae was diagnosed with depression at the age of thirty and bipolar disorder at thirty-five. She has been living with these illnesses since 1991 and has had numerous hospitalizations. Two psychiatrists told her at age thirty-nine that she would never work full time again. She has proven them wrong.
Lynn has written two books. The F Book: 7 F’s to Creating Your Fantastic Future teaches you how incorporating these seven F’s will lead to a happier, healthier, more joy-filled life. The other is called My Journey Back to Myself which depicts her struggles and recovery from bipolar disorder.
As an Inspirational Speaker Lynn shares with others her coping strategies for living with bipolar disorder and how she learned to be a productive member of society again and thrive despite how she was labelled. Her talk, “7 F’s to Creating Your Fantastic Future” outlines seven words all starting with the letter F that led to her recovery. She has spoken at hospitals, conferences, Rotary Clubs, libraries, colleges and universities.
Lynn Rae makes her home in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. In the summer she loves taking care of her vegetable garden and eating fresh from it every day.
