I read this for Psychology and it was very interesting book - with many studies and theories named.
Graphic: Mental illness, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Sexual assault
Moderate: Self harm, Death of parent, Forced institutionalization, Incest, Pedophilia, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Child abuse, and Suicidal thoughts
Minor: Death, Mass/school shootings, Injury/Injury detail, Medical content, Murder, and Suicide
The acts of rape/sexual assault to a child sibling were described, but not in too much detail, and in only a couple chapters. Everything is in 3rd person. The death of parent is described and talked about (like going to the funeral), but the death itself wasn’t described very in-detail and it was a natural death. There was also religious delusions (believing self to be God, and believing God was sending them a message). The school shootings was mentioned once, and a specific event wasn’t discussed.patch's review
