I should explain how difficult it is to keep trying to do better when there are so many people who just refuse to understand how hard it is. I should explain that I barely slept last night because I was so anxious about dinner and, even though I actually did well, I still feel like everyone was watching me, waiting for me to fuck up and ruin the day.

“The tight ball of muck inside me—I opened it. I opened the shame, and it crumbled next to yours. This connection—the one I didn’t think we were going to have—let some of my muck go.

“There is no part of me that isn't in here. I'm inviting you in. Into my thoughts, into my compulsions, into my voice. This is a raw but inviting look into a world I wasn't built for, and that wasn't built for me. My diagnosis makes some people uncomfortable. These people make me feel uncomfortable. I separate the 'us' who are touched by this light, and 'the others' who have yet to understand why we are separate. I hope this book will bridge the gap.”
