Emotional Torture - a deeply touching and vulnerable memoir of addiction, mental health, and recovery. Beth grows up in a seemingly idyllic fashion that comprised of big family get-togethers, unforgettable trips with friends, life-changing travel, multiple years of academics, and where she was arguably driven the most, her athletics. Her mother - a typical 'soccer mom', hard-working and self-sacrificing with a successful career in nursing - fell into narcotics addiction, spiraling quickly into severe alcoholism. While caring for her mother in the throes of her addiction, her father, the rock in her life, tragically suffered a severe traumatic brain injury. She was up against the challenge of managing their care, in a time where they were both barely clinging to life. Tenacious and driven - a self-described type A personality - Beth had to learn how to accept help for herself in the midst of coping with these new versions of her mother and father, while desperately seeking help for their recoveries. She shares what she has learned in the hopes of inspiring others who are coping with traumatic events in their lives. Emotional Torture - a must read.
