Description

Because We are Bad: OCD and a Girl Lost in Thought (Hardcover)
By Lily Bailey

As a child, Lily Bailey knew she was bad. By the age of 13, she had killed someone with a thought, spread untold disease, and ogled the bodies of other children. Only by performing an exhausting series of secret routines could she correct her wrongdoing. But it was never enough. She had a severe case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and it came with a bizarre twist.

“A candid, sometimes brutally and uncomfortably honest account of one girl’s transition from childhood into womanhood, constantly accompanied by her secret companion, OCD.” Ashley Fulwood, Chief Executive of OCD-UK.

“I laughed, I cried. I could not put this book down. Intensely moving with flashes of black humour, Because We Are Bad is the compelling account of one young woman’s experience of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.” – Rosanna Greenstreet, The Guardian.
