It’s an incredibly engaging and compelling book. part-memoir about Elfy's living experience and that of her mum, who lives with Schizophrenia. It's also a journalistic delve into why there’s still massive barriers for people who experience mental health conditions like schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, psychosis, obsessive compulsive disorder…to name a few.
