Samenvatting:

A raw, unfiltered diary recounting a harrowing journey through addiction, depression, and abuse in the fight to survive.At thirteen, Crystal was just a typical girl hanging out with the neighborhood kids, scribbling in her diary about her crushes and complaining about doing chores. By fourteen, she was skipping school, experimenting with drugs, and spiraling into the dangerous grip of addiction. By eighteen, she had dropped out of college, was living out of her car, and trapped in a cycle of self-destruction with no way out.Told through raw, unfiltered journal entries, Caring About Crystal is an intimate look into the mind of a teenager grappling with depression, challenging relationships, and a relentless desire for freedom. Through heartbreak, toxic relationships, and brushes with death, Crystal takes us on a journey of survival. But this is not just a story of addiction-it's a story of resilience, transformation, and the fight to reclaim her own life.If I disappear would anyone notice?How did I even get here?What does it feel like to truly be loved?What if I don't deserve to be happy?Crystal asked herself these questions time and time again. Now, she asks them of you.If you've ever felt lost, trapped in a cycle, or longed for a way out, Caring About Crystal will grip your heart, challenge your perspective, and remind you that redemption is always possible-even from the darkest places.
