This book has changed my life. I have never felt more seen than reading this. As a disclaimer I am a white woman so I cannot relate to some of the specifics Sadie goes through, but the representation of anxiety I this book was so representative of my experience of anxiety and OCD. I listened to the audio book on Libby and I am going to be buying a physical copy this weekend. This is an important, amazing book and I think you should read it.
