A parent would reach for this book when they feel isolated by the unique challenges of raising a child with mental illness and need to hear from others who truly understand. It is a raw, supportive collection of interviews with parents who have navigated the healthcare system and social stigma while advocating for their children. The book explores heavy themes of loneliness, guilt, and resilience, providing a communal space for parents who feel they are living in a parallel universe. While technically categorized for older teens (16-18), it is primarily a lifeline for the adults in the room, offering validation and hope when the traditional support systems fail.
