Inspired by the author’s own struggles with mental illness, Hallucinatory Tribulation is an anthology of short psychological horror stories which evolve around the mind, mental health, and the human experience. Although working to maintain a great semblance of realism when portraying mental disorders, these stories are fiction... al and written for entertainment purposes. They may contain extreme accounts of mental illness or simply be based upon the author’s own hallucinations or thoughts as a Schizoaffective and PTSD patient.

BIOGRAPHY More of a goat than a black sheep, Sahreth 'Baphy' Bowden has spent the majority of his life struggling with physical and mental health while dreaming of being able to share the universes created in his mind with others. A born and bred Arkansan, small town life suits Sahreth best, where he can focus on his family of... cats, rats, dogs, snake, possum, and of course, his loving wife of 10 years.
Having struggled with Schizoaffective Disorder and PTSD for the larger portion of his life, Sahreth finds it important to promote mental health awareness, working also to erase the many negative stigmas surrounding mental illness. Another goal dear to him is the achievement of a COEXIST culture amongst those with differing religious, political, and philosophical mindsets as well as those from different backgrounds and lifestyles including race, gender, identity, and orientation.
Sahreth is the author of the science social fiction trilogy 'Visitor's Blood,' which was his first major project as a writer. He has also published psychological horror shorts and LGBT+ paranormal romance and has plans for countless more books in the same categories as well as fantasy, gritty realistic fiction, and autobiographical nonfiction.
Personal Motto:
Education over fear; understanding over hatred.
