Dead from Shame is the deeply personal story of a man who spends twenty-four years struggling with social phobia and erythrophobia-the overwhelming fear of blushing.
At twelve, a humiliating experience at school changes Eduardo's life forever. From that moment on, blushing becomes an obsession that gradually controls his relationships, ambitions, studies, work, and sense of identity.
Desperate to regain a normal life, he embarks on an extraordinary search for a solution. Along the way, he encounters psychologists, hypnotists, healers, spiritual teachers, mysterious strangers, alternative therapies, and experiences that challenge everything he believes about illness, faith, and himself.
His search takes him across Chile and beyond, through moments of hope, disappointment, loneliness, friendship, despair, and unexpected encounters that leave lasting marks on his journey.
More than a story about social phobia, Dead from Shame is a story about what happens when fear becomes the center of a person's universe-and about the long, painful journey toward understanding who we really are.
A memoir of shame, loneliness, faith, friendship, perseverance, and the search for freedom.
