Ariane Beeston - Because I'm Not Myself, You See

Author In-conversation

A Memoir of Motherhood, Madness and Coming Back from the Brink

Ariane Beeston is a child protection worker and newly registered psychologist when she gives birth to her first child – and very quickly begins to experience scary breaks with reality. Out of fear and shame, she keeps her delusions and hallucinations secret, but as the months pass Ariane gets worse. Much worse. Finally admitted to a mother and baby psychiatric unit, the psychologist is forced to learn how to be the patient.

Ariane will be joined in conversation with local author, Fiona Lowe.

Book sales and author signings will be offered at this event.
