Synopsis
This book will be for mums and stepmums and mums with mental illnesses and mums without mums.
This book will be for me.
Everyone told Sinead that having a newborn was a beautiful kind of delirium - a hazy blur of broken sleep and exhaustion, wrapped in euphoria. A life-changing love. Sinead spent every day of her traumatic pregnancy clinging to that sliver of light in the dark.
But when Vivie arrived, there was no euphoria, no life-altering love. And nine days after giving birth, Sinead was admitted to the Mother & Baby Unit at Starship Hospital in the grips of severe postnatal depression.
An honest, gut-wrenching, irreverent, and shockingly funny memoir about motherhood and mental health, with raw, deeply personal insights into Sinead's own journey. It Nearly Killed Me But I Love You is a no-holds-barred exploration of what it means to be a mother - written with humour, wit, and devastating frankness.
