When You Lose It: Two voices. One true story. by Roxy Longworth, Gay Longworth

"Iᴛ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ʙᴇɪɴɢ ʜᴀɴᴅᴇᴅ ɢʟᴀssᴇs ᴡʜᴇɴ ʏᴏᴜ ᴅɪᴅɴ'ᴛ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴀᴅ ʙᴀᴅ ᴇʏᴇsɪɢʜᴛ"
At 13 Roxy was pressurized into sending explicit photos, there after blackmailed. The humiliation she felt coupled with self doubt lead her to a psychotic breakdown. Together Roxy and her mother Gay have to navigate this troublesome journey, making hard choices and following survival instincts.
This book is a memoir about a mother and daughters' relationship that was tested to the end, it was gut wrenching, raw and split wide open. I will recommend this book to anyone and everyone because you need to read this immediately. I felt every emotion both mother and daughter endured, from the happy moments, the little victories to the heart breaking one's too. It was truly an extraordinary book.
