Description

Inside the mind of a Schizophrenic Scouser This book tackles the stigmas surrounding mental illness with raw honesty and dark humour. From straitjackets to fearmongering, from serial killers to the boardroom, the protagonist navigates life under the constant weight of being watched - a prisoner in her own mind. But when does psychosis become a threat to those who don't understand it? For her, it's not the voices in her head that are most frightening, but the people around her. With humour and small victories, she learns to cope in a world that often feels scarier than her own thoughts.

About the Author

Caroline Sweeney is a reclusive and kind female whose experiences in life have left her broken, single, and unwanted in society. She now struggles with a medley of mental and other health problems that have culminated in schizophrenia. This is an inside-the-mind, brutally honest account of living with stigma, thinking with confusion, and the burden not just to herself but also to the siblings and parents who are part of her daily routine. It shows her complex relationship with invisible people, who are the only friends she has.
