About this listen

When Lina’s idyllic childhood descends into mental chaos in her teenage years, Lina resorts to recording her thoughts in diaries, online chats, and emails to make sense of her anguish. Through Lina’s heart-wrenching words, the listener steps into her broken inner world to experience firsthand the obsessions, irrationality, angst, and ruthlessness of teenage borderline personality disorder.

Emo Reality shines a light into the dark corners of adolescent mental illness, proving this disorder is not just a phase and demonstrating its ravages not just upon an individual, but also upon a whole family.

“This unflinching novel-as-memoir, drawn from the experiences of the author’s daughter, explores the experience of a girl with borderline personality disorder. Through fictionalized diary entries, online posts, and emails, the account is told in vivid detail as Lina contends with the thoughts consuming her.... Wrenching in its candidness, Lina’s story is a stark exploration of mental illness, undiagnosed and unchecked. Readers will become immersed in Lina’s reflections and understand what it is like for an individual and a family facing borderline personality disorder.” (Publisher’s Weekly Booklife)
