Author Sally Roberts grew up in an alcoholic household and faced tremendous abuse. As an adult, she went on to become an alcoholic herself.

In this personal narrative, she shares her life story, describing her struggles over the years and her eventual path to recovery. In seeking help, she began a descent into an extremely traumatised state due to the inappropriate advances of a counsellor and a cult-like rehab group. What resulted was a long and convoluted journey involving loneliness, alienation, and prostitution, as well as diagnoses of schizoaffective disorder and complex PTSD. In the end, Roberts received exceptional guidance and love along the way from the women of Rape Crisis, a phone support line; from psychiatric nurses and staff ; and from Jack, one of her counsellors who offered strength, commitment, compassion, and humour. Now she shares her story with the hope of reaching others in similar difficulties and helping them feel less alone.

Candid and compelling, this memoir tells the story of one womans road through mental illness and addiction to recovery and hope.
