*This is a personal story of my first hospitalization in an inpatient psychiatric ward. Names are changed for privacy purposes.*
Luce Laswell gets sent to a psychiatric hospital for teens when her parents find out she has an eating disorder and other extreme mental health issues (self-harm, suicidal thoughts/ attempts, depression, anxiety, OCD, and moderate Schizophrenia), but its not all-bad. Luce ends up "falling in love" with the guy of her dreams (and then later the GIRL of her dreams), meeting best friends that will eventually change her entire life, and recovering from this innermost nervosa.
Join Luce on her experience in an Inpatient Psychiatric Hospital, and see how the drama (and recovery process) unfolds. Filled with humor, raw emotions, and jaw-dropping realizations, this book will open up your eyes to the problems people around you may be going through.. and it might even inspire you to recover yourself :)
I'll try to update as often as I can and I LOVE reading your comments so please don't be shy!

~ got a girl with california eyes and I thought that she could really be the one this time. But I never got the chance to make her mine because she *is too* in love with little thin white lines ~
They say beauty is pain but is it really? Is less always more? It seems to be that way, at least for Taylor Swift, who strikes to meet every beauty standard there is to meet. In the world of fame she lives in her drastic weight loss doesn't go by unnoticed and only hours after the final show of her successful Eras Tour she finds herself in a psych ward, forced to face her relentless struggles with food.
Not long after the events of the famous singer being dragged to the psych ward, Maeve - a homeless drug addict, roaming the streets of LA - is met with a similar fate as she wakes up in that same psych ward after an unintentional overdose.
How will things work out for them? Can they win their internal battles? Will they make each other's lives even more miserable in the process or could they actually find comfort in one another?
