Quick intro
I won’t allow this book to be labeled a self-help book, I hate those. This book is an answer to a question you don’t know you have yet. I can’t promise you’ll find The answer, but maybe you’ll find an answer… or at least a couple hours of entertainment, and Good forbid: learning.
I know you’re looking for a taste before committing, a way to measure whether my book’s worth your while. So let me give you exactly that: This book is made up of 4 stories, each exploring a life shaped by a different mental health struggle.
The first is a deep dive into eating disorders, harsh to read I admit. Don’t get scared off please, I promise you there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
The second story shows the difficulties living with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) brings. Will you like the twist at the end? I sincerely hope you do :D.
Our third story isn’t specified, but the DSM would classify it as SUD (Substance Use Disorder), in other words, addiction. We also explore sleep paralysis here. I think I did a good job explaining hows, whys and what you can do about them, without getting too much into them.
Last but not least, the fourth story, our longest. Brace yourself for this one. You’ll be given a lot of pieces and asked to build the puzzle that could potentially be the answers you’re looking for.
How did I do? I hope I convinced you to read me. I'm eager to share my book with you, reader. To be honest, it’s a lot about me. What can I say, I’m a bit egocentric, aren’t we all? I wrote the book because, after falling MANY times, I got tired. I wanted to know why I kept falling, I wanted to know why I felt, thought, acted, the way I do. I figured a few things out and thought I could share them. Maybe someone who’s been falling one too many times, or watching someone fall one too many times, wants to know why. I may not be able to answer your specific whys, I don’t know you, but if you let me walk you through mine, I’ll give you the tools to figure out yours. if you let me.
