IM NOT AS WELL AS I THOUGHT I WAS - RUBY WAX TA...

'One of the most powerful books of the year' Daily Mail    'Nobody can make the serious funny
and the funny serious quite like Ruby.' - Alastair Campbell  Dear Reader   Checking into a
mental clinic wasn't exactly on my radar in 2022. Writing about it wasn't either. But here we
are.  I spent a lifetime trying to create a 'front' to give everyone the illusion that all is
well. It wasn't  and it isn't. Now I look back and I think  'what the f*ck was that all about?'
I began the book trying to find meaning by going on various  life-changing journeys  I ended up
in a mental clinic  obviously things didn't work out the way I expected. This is the story of
what happened after the mental car crash . . . From then on  the journey had to turn inward. It
turns out I wasn't looking for meaning  I was looking for home.  I'm not a fiction writer. I
can't fake it. I could say I rode into the sunset  but life isn't like that unless you're a
cowboy. Truth is I'm not as well as I thought I was.  These days  trying to stay sane in a
completely chaotic world makes life incredibly difficult. For those readers who are deep in the
darkness of mental illness  I hope my book makes you feel less alone.  Take care  love  Ruby x

book this year  make it this one.' - Joanna Lumley   'A true tour de force. We're all a little
messed up in our own ways  but we should all strive to be as fabulously fearless as Ruby.' -
Fearne Cotton   As seen on Channel 5 Castaway   Sunday Times bestseller  May 2023
