Based on a true story of a little girl who lost her ability to relate to the real world around her due to a devastating tragedy and how she overcame every mental struggle to succeed in life.
Mary was a happy little girl.
Her idyllic days end with her father's death in 1959. Mary's world shatters. Her mother changes into someone she doesn't recognize. Her mom's new boyfriend makes life a living hell. And Mary's mind can only handle so much trauma.
Mary struggled through life growing up and as a new mother. This was long before mental health was talked about, before disassociation, panic attacks, and PTSD were heard of. But Mary knew a good life was waiting for her, if she could just get her mind and spirit back somehow.
Based on true events,
Welcome Into My Mind
is a memoir about growing up too soon, facing trauma, self-worth, and how one little girl fought to learn how to thrive in her marriage, family, and beyond her past.
