- $13.99
Kari Ferguson candidly recounts her struggle with obsessive-compulsive disorder—including scrupulosity, hyper-responsibility, and contamination fears—as an active Latter-day Saint. Interweaving personal narrative, scripture, and quotes from Church leaders, she explains that mental illness is not sin or spiritual weakness and that God expects us to use every tool available, including therapy and medication. With practical tips throughout, this hopeful memoir helps sufferers, families, and Church leaders understand mental illness, combat stigma, and find healing.
- A rare, candid LDS voice on the intersection of faith and mental illness—especially scrupulosity, the religious form of OCD few talk about
- Reassures readers that mental illness is not sin, weakness, or spiritual failure, backed by quotes from Elder Holland and Church resources
- Combines raw personal memoir with actionable 'Practical Tips and Tools' in every chapter
- Speaks to sufferers AND to family members, friends, and ecclesiastical leaders who want to help
Perfect for a Latter-day Saint who struggles with OCD, scrupulosity, anxiety, or depression—or who loves and wants to understand a family member or ward member who does.
