Catch Me Before I Fall
Catch Me Before I Fall - Rosie Childs
Interesting. A memoir, but one of the depressing ones. No happy ending, and lots of "why wouldn't anyone hug me" distress. I have to wonder if the British psychiatric system could really be as inept as she makes it out to be. Also, how much Law & Order do you have to watch to immediately realize that a child who can't eat salad cream (it's the UK), yoghourt, or ice cream is probably repressing some sexual molestation memories? If I could figure it out, why couldn't Rosie? Or any of her various doctors? No offense to the last one, who did figure it out. I guess Law & Order isn't syndicated overseas.
I feel sorry for this woman, but I do not recommend the book. Free from the Book Expo.
