Overview

"In the tradition of Allie Brosh and Roz Chast, award-winning popular cartoonist, writer, and illustrator Gemma Correll's humorous and poignant graphic memoir about her lifelong struggle with severe anxiety. Gemma brings readers into the surreal world of Anxietyland, an amusement park in her own mind. In essays packed with humor and pathos she captures the experience of mental illness--including severe anxiety, agoraphobia, depression, panic attacks, and disassociation--which can take her to a frightening and darkly funny world that ""feels like a place apart from 'real' life."" With humor that is both gentle and precise, and accompanied by her trademark illustrations, Gemma approaches mental illness in a uniquely imaginative and approachable way. And in the ultimate sleight of hand, she's written a charming and moving book about anxiety that won't make you feel anxious."
