People with borderline personality disorder are like people with third-degree burns over 90% of their bodies. Lacking emotional skin, they feel agony at the slightest touch or movement.
- Dr. Marsha Linehan
Rohan Ellis captures the pain, isolation, and fractured identity of the BPD experience with brutal honesty, balanced by moments of fierce joy and hope.
The collection explores themes of mental health, depression, anxiety, and grief, offering a vivid and compassionate glimpse into the chaos beneath the surface and the human struggle to be seen and understood.
i do not cry, my lungs just rupture.
i do not laugh, my throat just splits.
i am not afraid, i am a frantic hand,
pulling the panic button from its wire
The collection explores themes of mental health, depression, anxiety, and grief, offering a vivid and compassionate glimpse into the chaos beneath the surface and the human struggle to be seen and understood.
