About this book

Book Summary

Anna's childhood experiences and dysfunctional family patterns loom over her journey to adulthood. She struggles with relationships and cannot trust the good ones, eventually finding herself in an abusive relationship, as family secrets unfold in unpredictable ways.

Locked in a cycle of reacting to her emotional triggers and past, she constantly asks herself, What is wrong with me?

Through her journey to manage emotions and relationships, Anna gleams therapeutic insights and psychological tools, learning to cope with her mental health and discover healthy behaviors that lead to happiness and meaningful relationships. A fictional tale with a self-help twist, readers follow Anna as she hopes to answer one of life's many questions.

How does one break free from the only role and life they've ever known?
