Like so many mothers, Julie Chavez runs herself ragged trying to meet the needs of everyone else… until an unexpected panic attack forces her to find a new way.
Funny, deeply honest, and inspiring for readers facing overwhelm in their own lives, Everyone But Myself reads like a best friend’s confessions. Julie shares how she pulled herself back to solid ground while embracing chaos along the way.
For Julie, an elementary school librarian and mother of two boys, the signs of mounting anxiety and depression had been there for a while. She did her very best to ignore them. Then, one night, while her husband is away on business, Julie finds herself locked in a debilitating panic attack that throws her life into a tailspin.
What follows is funny, unflinchingly honest writing about managing it all, comically negligent doctors, husbands who can't read minds, family outings gone wrong… and the life-affirming joy of working in a school library, surrounded by books and children every day.
Written with humor and hope, and sure to resonate with mothers spread thin by the demands of modern family life, Everyone But Myself offers an intimate portrait of how one woman found her way back from the edge.
