A day in my head by Aron Bennett

Description

The day is May 16th. An ordinary day for many; for some, a day that would change the course of their lives irrevocably. A Day in My Head is a collection of authentic first-hand accounts of mental illness, ranging from obsessive compulsive disorder to depression, anxiety, panic disorder, physical abuse, schizophrenia, autism and many more. Both moving and funny, the diverse diary entries in this book offer insight and hope that we may someday transcend the stigma surrounding mental illness as we continue journeying propitiously to ever safer, more compassionate shores .
