Download or read book There s Something Wrong With Us written by Kathryn Purcell and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Add an unloving, narcissistic mother, a sister exhibiting extremely reckless behavior with bi-polar disorder, a lack of self-esteem issues and you have There's Something Wrong With Us: A Daughter's Story of Mental Illness and Healing. This book addresses emotional abuse by a mother who didn't show love, approval or empathy to her family and the emotional impact it had on all of us. It's not a downer as much as it is a story of survival and overcoming some long odds! With the help of many "Angels" in my path, this is a story of how I dealt with it. This book is written like a novel including many historical facts about places described in and around Greenville, SC. There's also a fair amount of quirky southern characters and humor to go with it-like a hair-brained trip up the interstate with a donkey in the back seat of a Ford sedan, a 70's psychedelic home remodel and almost shooting a home invader who happened to be my mother-in-law! This humor is not meant to minimize the serious nature of mental illness as much as it is to reveal how I coped with it in my life. I primarily want to bring awareness to the impact of emotional abuse, which is as devastating as physical or sexual abuse--except the scars are on the inside instead of outside.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's something I only learned later. When the radiologist was handed the scan, he asked, 'Righto, where's the body?' Shame I missed that. I could have done with a laugh. When Nigel Smith got rushed to hospital with a brain lesion so big that the radiologist assumed he'd died, he was understandably hacked off.

I Think There's Something Wrong With Me is his amazing, hilarious account of his fight for survival. Battling a brutal illness, impossible bureaucracy and nurses that could only serve as fantasies to the writers of Doctor Who, Nigel Smith has produced a brilliant black comedy for our time. It is a book for everyone who's ever thought, 'there must be more to life than this'. Because sometime things have to go seriously wrong to make us realize just how much is right.

The once cancer-stricken mother lives in the basement, the father is married to the mother’s former nurse, the little half-brother isn’t allowed to do or eat anything fun, and the eldest siblings are irritatingly perfect. Then, there’s Merit. Merit Voss collects trophies she hasn’t earned and secrets her family forces her to keep. While browsing the local antiques shop for her next trophy, she finds Sagan.

When her escape plan fails, Merit is forced to deal with the staggering consequences of telling the truth and losing the one boy she loves. Poignant and powerful, Without Merit explores the layers of lies that tie a family together and the power of love and truth.

You might say you’re introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. Maybe you're usually confident but have recently moved or started a new job, only to feel isolated and unsure. If you get nervous in social situations—meeting your partner's friends, public speaking, standing awkwardly in the elevator with your boss—you've probably been told, “Just be yourself!” But that's easier said than done—especially if you're prone to social anxiety. Weaving together cutting-edge science, concrete tips, and the compelling stories of real people who have risen above their social anxiety, Dr. Ellen Hendriksen proposes a groundbreaking idea: you already have everything you need to succeed in any unfamiliar social situation. As someone who lives with social anxiety, Dr. Hendriksen has devoted her career to helping her clients overcome the same obstacles she has. With familiarity, humor, and authority, Dr. Hendriksen takes the reader through the roots of social anxiety and why it endures, how we can rewire our brains through our behavior, and—at long last—exactly how to quiet your Inner Critic, the pesky voice that whispers, "Everyone will judge you." Using her techniques to develop confidence, think through the buzz of anxiety, and feel comfortable in any situation, you can finally be your true, authentic self.
