Opis

In this book, fifteen women talk about their battle with self-injury and explain how and why they repeatedly and deliberately injure themselves. They also describe living with ceaseless shame, secrecy, and fear of discovery that could make them unemployable and ostracized. Candidly discussing their attempted and successful recoveries, they reveal the impact living with self-injury has on their day-to-day lives -- where they are competent workers, partners, friends, and mothers.
