Dear Diary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578877228)

Kayla is a stay-at-home mom, trying her damnedest to keep it all together. Struggling to balance her needs with those of her husband, three rambunctious boys, and still-on-the-teat baby along fills her with a level of anxiety no number of to-do lists can help her shake. As the recession threatens her husband's job and upends their financial stability, Kayla is left to struggle internally while keeping up her public persona of Doer of All the Things. The ups and downs of marital life and motherhood, coupled with the drama of friends and family, start a mental health spiral Kayla is desperate to escape from before the world around her can see it for themselves. One tantrum away from a complete breakdown, Kayla finds herself facing a sobering, life-altering reality that leaves her whispering to herself, "Don't lose your shit."
