Left Sock, Right Sock

The debut poetry collection by author Claire Olivia Golden explores the reality of life with debilitating mental illness. The poems discuss stigma both from society and from within. Everyday life is a battle and sometimes you're too tired to fight. What does it mean to value yourself when the world doesn't want to acknowledge your struggles? When you've never known a mind without anxiety, can you ever find peace? And is it possible to have a life worth living when your own mind is your worst enemy? These questions and more are explored in Left Sock, Right Sock, an honest and personal look at mental illness.
