Julia Knörnschild is a mother of two young children, successful entrepreneur, influencer and author. In the summer of 2022, however, nothing works anymore. Knörnschild admits herself to a day hospital with symptoms of exhaustion and depression. She is diagnosed with burnout, ADHD and an anxiety disorder. And she realizes: it cannot go on like before.
In her second book, Julia Knörnschild explains mental illness in a touching and, despite all its tragedy, funny way. She provides insights into her therapy sessions, group meetings and her everyday life as a mother who is not 'functioning'.
Rarely have mental illness and mental health been discussed so personally, especially in the context of motherhood. This taboo needs to finally be broken so that mothers everywhere get the visibility they deserve.
