Publisher Description
Fairytales can be rewritten.
When you are constantly holding your breath every time the phone rings, when you are always waiting for the other shoe to drop, when you are continually walking on eggshells... you can't help but crave for a lighter time and want for the fairytale.
In Searching for Slippers, Stacy Ross tells her story as a parent of a child with Borderline Personality Disorder. With a raw honesty rarely found in parents of children with mental illness, Stacy takes readers on a roller coaster ride of emotions and experiences on her journey to acceptance. Through it all, she has her own coming of age discovering that a life unplanned for was exactly what she needed to emerge a lighter yet stronger version of herself.
Customer Reviews
As a Psychologist I will be recommending this book to many families
I have been a clinical psychologist for almost 30 years and have worked with many families impacted by borderline personality disorder. I found the author’s journey to be honest, heartfelt and truly relatable. I will be recommending this book to many people and will support her mission of helping others to feel less alone. On a personal note, I could relate to wanting a fairy tale and having to readjust my story when life’s traumas inevitably occurred. Beautiful story of both interpersonal and familial growth!
