When Life Gives You Rotten Bananas... Ashley Ryker

This young girl struggles with so many things in her life and all because of one problem: she has a mental illness. Diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder at the age of 19, she now lives her life in recovery. For 22 years, however, she felt like a bowl of rotten bananas. She dealt with sexual abuse, self-loathing, discriminations, suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, poor emotional regulation, a poor perception of how the world was really functioning around her, and the list goes on from there. And she wondered where in the world was God in all this? All she wanted was to feel normal and loved, but she didn't know how to feel genuine happiness and satisfaction. She thought this was a hopeless dream, until one day her life changed... May God bless every person that reads this book and may it give them inspiration that life can be more than a bowl of rotten bananas....
