Part self-help book, part memoir … with a twist. Cara takes you through the events that have shaped her life – from an iatrogenic condition which left her housebound and compulsions that made her feel mentally isolated, to her struggles to communicate after trauma and her battle with anxiety. It includes some observations on life and the lessons she has learned from pain – but whether she takes her own advice is another story ... This book covers: ~ Anxiety ~ Disordered eating ~ The destructive nature of fear ~ Comparison in the age of social media ~ Identity ~ A new take on shyness ~ Dating ~ Growing up with red hair ~ Transformation ~ Panicking ~ Chronic skin conditions ~ Trichotillomania and dermatillomania ~ An (OVER) organised mind … and much more. It is broken up into two parts, with the first part written in late 2019, and the second during the summer of 2020, and how the events of that year affected one thirty-something woman trying to navigate it all. She is not an expert on life – she is a mess.
