Taming Crazy: Confessions and Lessons, Paperback

After years of battling crippling anxiety, depression and an obsessive-compulsive disorder, Alicya Perreault found herself at a crossroad. She could either accept things as they were or she could find another way through and fight it. She chose to fight. Part memoir, part self-help, Taming Crazy - Confessions and Lessons is a journey of strength, vulnerability, courage and laughter. Told with humour, truth and the occasional swear word, she shares the lessons she learned in her quest to climb out of the rabbit hole once and for all, often with hilarious results. This book is an honest, raw portrayal of how paralyzing anxiety, OCD, and depression can affect daily life. Most importantly, it is a story of hope. Filled with emotional and often humorous confessions, she takes us by the hand and shares the real-life struggle to 'fit in.' She shares the lessons she learned on finding her way through constant worry and paralyzing anxiety while still managing to have a laugh or two along the way.
