Wired Up Wrong by Rachael Smith
5.0
Sad, funny and painfully honest, this is a book that will make you feel less alone. The author does not hold back in sharing her mental health struggles but also has a great sense of humour while being so open about her experiences and innermost thoughts. It's nice to see that the author has such a great support system.
I could relate quite a bit but also found this comics collection to be very informative and illuminating. Negative voices are depicted as two different dogs, with the fluffier one actually being more 'deadly' than the evil-looking one. The author explains that this is because of one's tendency to wallow in the more depressing thoughts, which makes so much sense.
It's nice to see that the author has such a great support system. She also recounts her experiences with sexual harassment and her mother's response. This is definitely my favourite part of the book and the reason for my 5⭐ rating.
