About Me
My name is Keauna Bjorkman and I’m 21 years old. I was born and raised in Wisconsin. I am currently a Special Education Aide at an Elementary School. As you get to know me you will know how much I LOVE kids and how much Special Education kids will always have a special place in my heart. I started working with kids when I was 18. Starting off working at a daycare and have since then worked my way up to being in a school setting! I’ve had about 5 or 6 jobs with Special Education and my current job is the first job that I overall have no complaints. Going to a job I love with amazing co-workers and overall a great setting, has helped my mental health tremendously. I feel like it’s not a chore to go to work and I look forward to going every single day.
I am a cat mom to my two babies. I love spending time with my family and friends as well as reading and being outside. Growing up I was a loving child with a huge heart. Then my mental health took over and I stopped being this go-lucky happy girl. Mental health has become a huge part of my life and I hope that you can take something from my blogs.
Now that you know a little bit about me, let’s get into the “tough” talk. In 2018 I was diagnosed with Depression and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. In 2021 I was diagnosed with bipolar. In 2021 I voluntarily admitted myself to inpatient behavioral health where I spent three days shut out from the world. Those three days were the best and worst of my life. I will go more in-depth about it in another blog! I am blogging to share with you my experiences of mental health, the traumatic stuff, the hard stuff, and the moments I will never forget. My goal is to help ONE person in this rough world we live in, and if I can do that I have “won” in my books! My blogs are going to be serious but also happy, so buckle up! You all are in for a roller coaster ride! 🙂
