About the Book
A POWERFUL COLLECTION OF REAL STORIES OF INDIAN WOMEN THAT CHALLENGES MENTAL HEALTH STIGMA AND INSPIRES HEALING THROUGH TRUTH, VULNERABILITY AND EMPATHY.
This evocative collection weaves together lived experiences of women in urban India who have been navigating severe mental health conditions, from schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, complex PTSD, suicide loss and suicidality to trauma, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, OCD and ADHD. Emerging from spaces that are not always safe or supportive, they challenge the label of 'brokenness' and help reshape prevailing perspectives on the idea of wholeness. They also have the capacity to inform and inspire change in how families, communities, workplaces and even mental health professionals understand and respond to mental health conditions.
