Žena na rubu živčanog sloma

Lorna Martin

"A Woman on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" is a sincere, intimate and entertaining personal story of a woman in her thirties who is trying to put her chaotic life (which seems perfect from the outside) in order.

It looked like everything was fine on the outside, but on the inside, I said. I think a lot of people function that way. As a society, we spend a fortune on gyms, yoga, healthy food, diets, massages, expensive clothes... As long as it's about the outside, that's fine. But people are terrified of the mention of mental health. If someone wants to improve on the inside, it's seen as selfish.

I discovered that everything I thought I knew about myself was wrong...

Successful journalist Lorna Martin has it all in life: a dream job at London's The Observer, a decent salary, great friends and excellent health, but she's deeply mired in a complicated love affair with a married man. And as she ponders why she is still afraid of commitment even though she yearns for a stable relationship, why she chooses the wrong men, cries constantly, exposes herself to embarrassment at work and always has a need to please others, she realizes that the time has come to finally take a firm stand for herself and delve deep into her soul. Although she has always considered psychotherapy a fraud, a scam designed for weaklings and people who like to whine about everything and anything, Lorna, at the urging of her sister Louise and best friend Katy, decides, albeit with trepidation, to embark on a year-long psychotherapy process with the icy Dr. J....
