Crying On The Shower Floor Rory Philips

I started writing this book during the worst mental breakdown I have ever had. I picked up a pen, and a notebook, and it all just came pouring out over the next twelve months. This is about depression, anxiety, emptiness, love, and repressed memories. I wrote this book when I was struggling with imposter syndrome, and suicidal ideation. Since I started writing this, I've been to therapy, and learned to open up more to friends, and loved ones about these thoughts, and feelings. In doing so, I've learned it's more common than you might think, or would ever want to believe. I'm writing this, because it gets better, and sometimes the best catalyst for change, is realizing your shortcomings, and the times you've been toxic. This is ultimately a book about hope, and maybe it will help you, the same way writing it has helped me.
