Product Description
by Buruuj Tunsill (Author)
Growing up with siblings who are also her cousins, witnessing the gruesome abuse of her mother, and watching her father escape from her life without a goodbye, Buruuj Tunsill had an unusual start to say the least. Due to many unanswered questions in her head, she struggled with reading and articulating her thoughts. As she grows and learns more about herself, she becomes more vocal about her feelings, though not in the best way. During her early teenage years, Buruuj develops hostility and overwhelming emotions that are hard for even her to understand. At the age of 15, she begins to lead a self-destructive life-from seeking affection in all the wrong places to taking on more than she can bear. She's searching for something, but she doesn't know what. After many trials and tribulations, she attempts to put the pieces together and find true peace. However, at the age of 18, she suffers from a mental break that lands her in a psychiatric facility for three months, where she is diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder. Unfortunately for Tunsill, it doesn't stop there; her journey to serenity has only just begun.
