In his debut memoir, Dan Brien takes readers on a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and healing. Untitled Omi Memoir is a raw and honest exploration of identity, family, and the complexities of mental health.

Growing up as a mixed-race Japanese American, Dan always felt like an outsider. He struggled to fit in at school and often felt invisible to his white peers. At home, he grappled with the legacy of his Japanese grandmother, who had survived the Hiroshima bombing.

As a teenager, Dan began to experience crippling anxiety and depression. He spent years self-medicating with drugs and alcohol, desperate to escape his inner turmoil. But it wasn't until he hit rock bottom that he finally reached out for help.

Through therapy and the support of his loved ones, Dan slowly began to piece together the fragments of his identity. He learned to embrace his unique heritage and to find strength in his vulnerability. He also discovered the importance of self-compassion and forgiveness.

Untitled Omi Memoir is a candid and moving account of one man's journey towards self-acceptance and healing. It is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with issues of identity, family, or mental health.
