My brief memoir about mental health, identity, and coping in today's world is now available on Amazon.
Official Description: In “my father didn’t hug me when he picked me up from the psych ward” Alyson Matlin reveals her struggles with mental illness, identity, and simply existing in this strange world. Her thoughts are presented as an unrelenting outpouring of information that threatens to overwhelm the reader with experiences that have overwhelmed the author. This brief but raw memoir seems to combine the blunt honesty of Melissa Broder and Elizabeth Wurtzel with the almost aggressively chaotic style of Darcie Wilder. Anyone who has struggled to define themselves, or found themselves exhausted by the unique tragedies of 2020 will be able to relate to feeling as “crazy” as Matlin has throughout her life.
