A courageous and compelling memoir about one woman's experience with dissociative PTSD, for readers of Gisèle Pelicot and Sarah Polley.

On paper, Michelle Hébert was a successful, high-functioning woman. A former social worker turned government executive, a mother of two, a wife, a published author. But there was a secret about her that nobody knew--one that her own brain was trying to keep from her. One that was destroying her from the inside out. Why couldn't she recognize herself in mirrors? Why did her mind disconnect from her body for long periods, leaving her to deal with decisions she made while she was dissociated--like finding herself walking down the aisle at a wedding she didn't remember planning? Why couldn't she shake the gnawing fear that something was very wrong with her brain, or that she'd done something terrible?
