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

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
