Overview

'HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TOLD YOUR ILLNESS IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD, YOUR PAIN THRESHOLD IS UNUSUALLY LOW OR IF YOU'VE BEEN DISMISSED BY OR UNDERMINED BY A MEDIC, READ THIS. Dr Anita is an expert, she sees the system through both sets of eyes and trust me, she's taking no prisoners. Not with the system and how and where it fails, but also with her brutal honesty around her own illness, her desperation for an accurate diagnosis, the cause, and a cure.' Maz Farrelly This book is a cautionary tale of a 'Lady Doctor' who found herself stuck in a fairy tale of pain, disenchantment, and abandonment. Forced to dive down the 'rabbit hole' of modern-day medicine, over a three-year period, she encountered obstacles and characters, who consistently challenged, and disregard her. Out of desperation, and afraid of insanity, she explored mythology, medicine, naturopathy, toxins, pain, and trauma, to better understand her illness... WAS SHE, CRAZY LIKE ALICE? FADING AWAY, LIKE THE CHESHIRE CAT? OR AS MAD AS A HATTER?
