Justin Rollins’ acclaimed The Lost Boyz followed his early life on the streets. Ten years on, this new book describes how he served time in adult prisons, triggering paranoia, fears, flashbacks and fixations. Mental Me tells how he overcame his locked-in thinking, dread of authority and nemesis ’Wayne Lister’ to become an expert on gangs and youth crime. It traces the ’ghosts’ behind the author’s life-limiting mental challenges - including obsessive compulsive disorder and complex post-traumatic stress - making it of great interest to practitioners, students, fellow sufferers and all those who support them.
