Resultat berättad av "Amy Liz Harrison" i Alla kategorier

Before she was the quirky mom of eight, Amy Liz Harrison was a California kid, growing up in the 1980s, obsessed with Madonna and Moonlighting. Her first book, Eternally Expecting, navigated the bumpy ride of Harrison’s early adult life. We followed her marriage, the birth of her first four children, and the ongoing postpartum depression she tried to numb with alcohol. Ultimately, the touching story of her first decade of sobriety was revealed. In Eternally Awkward, we find another culprit at work. Depression had an accomplice—one that was difficult to catch. 

To recovering '80s kid Amy Liz Harrison, getting sober and giving birth were shockingly similar. And she's uniquely qualified to know since she's been sober for over a decade and has given birth to eight children (nope, this sentence has no typos). Depression, isolation, boredom and a devastating crisis of faith led to extra glasses (or bottles) of wine at the end of the day. Which eventually led to being led away from her kids in handcuffs. Ten years of sobriety and four more babies later, Harrison realized that giving birth and getting sober were kinda sorta the same.
