Publisher's Synopsis
Emerging From the Wasteland is a heart-wrenching tale of mental illness and recovery. It is the tale of one young woman reclaiming her life after reaching the brink of death and being involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital.
The voices of the Wasteland trapped Annabelle in their clutches for years, telling her to starve herself to the point that her digestive system shut down. Her psychiatrist committed her against her will to prevent the voices from killing her. But by that point, she had developed severe physical complications, and doctors didn't know how to treat her or if she would make it. And even if her body survived, would her mind be able to leave the Wasteland for good?
This work of fiction is inspired by true events.
