Follow the true story of my struggle with self-injury, bulimia, and my own mind. Constant anxiety and an abusive past brought me to intentionally, and repeatedly cut my leg, burn my wrist, and beat my arm with a wrench. I was admitted to a psychiatric ward. My fear of regaining the weight I lost, and losing my violent means of coping, causes me to fight against the help I so desperately needed. I went where all the rules were made for me and I had to obey. People cried out in fits. I've seen them destroy the things in their path. I've heard the staff call for security and, moments later, I'd see the patient get carried away by a dozen strong men. Soon, that patient was tied to a bed in an isolation room. My heart ached for those that got tied down. I had no idea that I would soon become one of them. Let me tell you about how I dealt with the loss of my secrets, and how my family reacted to my need to bleed. Let me introduce you to the unique men and women admitted to the ward alongside me. Let me tell you what all this was like for me. This story has descriptive detail of acts of self-injury. I warn you of triggering content.

Review I rate Lady Injury 4 out of 4 stars. I believe this is an important discussion to be opened world wide, and I felt I got a very personal look at the author's experiences. Additionally , the writing was beautiful and the transition from journal entries to complete story was seamless. - OnlineBookClub.org

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A powerful reading to match an empowering journey By HMD Oh.my.god! When Melissa opened up her books online for free, I just knew I HAD to read this book. I've wanted to for years, and when I heard about her second edition, that passion only increased. I fully intend to purchase this book in its full form one day. I read the ebook version within 15 hours, split up only by sleep, and it was the greatest, most amazing and heart wrenching, beautiful, profound experiences of reading that I've had in a very, very long time. I cheered for her in the passages where she recognized she had a choice, where she chose recovery and made it through to it despite the times she fell down. I cheered when she made it to her Cancun trip, she showed such resiliency and empowerment in that hospital stay. I loved Dr. Stone and Saul and I'm glad she had such encouraging providers with her throughout her time, both in this book and in her complete experience. The people who chided her for her behavior made me as angry as they did her, and I found myself scoffing at times with what they were insinuating.I've followed Melissa for years, not since the beginning, but I think since about the summer of 2011. She was one of a few mental health Youtubers who I learned about self harm from, what I may be able to do to help those I knew suffering with it and was just a genuinely inspiring and amazing person to get to know from her videos. I wrote to her once on Tumblr and am still honored for the response she gave to my words. I've cried when she's cried, and I'm so proud of her for all that she's gone through and has still stuck it out for. From reading this book, I'm so proud and amazed that she was able to once been so private with her struggles to then growing to be able to speak of them publicly online. I cannot thank her enough for sharing her journey and her struggles and also her accomplishments.I'm so grateful to have gotten the chance to finally read this book. I'm honored and glad that I read it at this point in my life, where last year I went through some psychiatric hospitalizations of my own, and struggles with OCD and self harm. I could find myself relating more to her story and was fond of the memories and friends I made within my own journey that her book churned up for me. I also found it hilarious she also had the ping pong table! I had a ping pong table in two of my stays as well =D Ping pong is great.Overall, I really, really loved the book. The edit at the end, her 'After' made me smile and cry a little. Recovery is possible. And I also believe in every other person out there in the world who may be struggling: You will make it through. And, you are not alone. LADY INJURY, by Melissa C. Water
