'A brilliant fast, funny and frank look at something that absolutely needs to be talked about in this way' - Matt Haig

'I felt comforted by this book; by the honesty, insight, compassion, and the beautiful writing' - Marian Keyes

Bryony Gordon has OCD. It's the snake in her brain that has told her ever since she was a teenager that her world is about to come crashing down. It's caused alopecia, bulimia, and drug dependency, and Bryony is sick of it.

A hugely successful columnist for the Telegraph, a bestselling author, and a happily married mother of an adorable daughter, Bryony has managed to laugh and live well while simultaneously grappling with her illness. In Mad Girl, Bryony explores her relationship with her OCD and depression as only she can.
