Description
As a child, Lily knew she was bad. By the age of 13, she had killed someone with a thought, spread untold disease, and spied on her friends. Only by performing a 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 ruled her life. A startling true story.
Traces the author's childhood struggles with debilitating obsessive-compulsive disorder and her hard-won journey to recovery, detailing how her young life was marked by exhaustive secret routines that she gradually transformed into healthier activities to become a better functioning adult.
