Few people knew that Freddie Mercury kept a diary. When he died in 1991, he left behind seventeen handwritten notebooks chronicling his life and times, which he had begun to write in 1976 when Queen were at the height of their global fame. His final entry was made just weeks before his death. Only four of his nearest and dearest ever knew what became of those diaries. To one of them, Freddie secretly entrusted the collection just before he died.

Jason takes listeners through the tangled intersections of autism, ADHD, trauma, and chronic illness — through the systems that failed him, the people who shaped him, and the quiet victories that kept him here. It’s both memoir and mirror; a reminder that surviving isn’t the same as living, and that sometimes we only find who we are after everything else falls apart.
