Reviews - What people say

"At last we live in an age where mental health is no longer a taboo subject and is openly talked about and discussed. The Worm Inside the Onion has been written by a highly knowledgeable author at the time when it is most needed and should be read by everyone, not just those who think they have a problem with their mental health. The book is easy to read and understand, unlike most books dedicated to this subject, and will help you make some sense of your own crazy mind."

"A true story of a personal journey of life, loss and how to find self contentment through striving for authenticity of who you really are with many tools and strategies to help achieve this outcome."

"A very interesting read, and a very honest account of the many struggles Shirley had to find happiness and her true place in this life. Recommended to those searching for the same path."

"This book is inspiring, quick and simple to read but full of hope and inspiration. If you cannot afford therapy and you are struggling with your mental health or just the meaning of your life, this book is brilliant. It is like you have your own therapist in your head, which helped me to understand why I think in such a negative way. Shirley is open and honest about her own flaws and mistakes and she owns everything on this rollercoaster ride to hell and back."
