OCDaniel by Wesley King

All I can say is, thank you Wesley King! Thank you for an inside look into one of the least discussed mental illnesses. Not only showing us OCD but also a look into Sara's life with generalized anxiety, depression, BPD and mild Schizophrenia. Both of these characters get to showcase very underrepresented and not well understood mental illnesses.
It is hard to listen to at times but also paints a picture of how children often hide their mental afflictions from their peers and families. As someone who also took until their late twenties before actively seeking help for their own mental health and finally being open on these matters, I can empathize a lot with the author and some of the emotions I also had as a kid.
Definitely worth the read!
