Crazy Times and Mad Hope: HSAM, OCD, Mania, and Faith

Prepare to have your mind blown. In this electrifying memoir, one man’s extraordinary life defies belief—too wild to be fiction, yet 100% real. Born with Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM), he recalls every detail with uncanny precision: from every NCAA basketball champion and runner-up since 1983, to his first football game at age 7, watching Illinois stop Ohio State with 1:43 on the clock, then score a 21-yard TD with 1:06 left. But memory is both a gift and a curse, fueling a relentless battle with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and a shocking manic episode at age 41—where he believed he was Neo from *The Matrix*, sent to the year 2250 to die for Satan, only to be hauled off by cops and sedated.

This is no ordinary tale. From the depths of despair—wrestling mania, surviving his brother’s suicide, and facing his own dark nights—to the quiet strength of faith that anchored him since age 15, this journey is raw, unfiltered, and unforgettable. Laugh at the absurdity, gasp at the intensity, or find hope in the chaos—*Crazy Times and Mad Hope* is a rollercoaster that will leave you stunned and inspired.
