Full Description
All In Your Head is about what happens when your doctor
doesn't believe that you're ill. When they think you are imagining a
serious ailment, or worse, faking it.
It's the story of the stigma that goes with invisible illness, and of
the strange places that chronic illness takes you. It's the tale of
bizarre treatments, and above all, the damage that's created through
other people's doubts and indifference.
Yet, there is an epidemic of undiagnosed, hard-to-explain, and
misunderstood illnesses in today's world, with new illnesses such as
long-COVID steadily emerging. It is often up to individuals to drive
their own search for recognition and a diagnosis, a task that can prove challenging due to establishment scepticism and disinterest.
With honesty, and at times, dark humour, All In Your Head -
from multiple award-winning author Marcus Sedgwick - explores how four
simple words can make you question your sense of reality.
