Publisher's Synopsis
Relationships can be challenging at the best of times. Learning to compromise and make sacrifices for the people we love is something most of us do without question. However, when faced with mental illness, lies, deceit, betrayal and the horrifying discovery that your entire life with someone has been nothing more than a charade, those relationships - along with your own sanity - can be pushed to the breaking point. "Not my circus, Not my monkey" is the story of one woman's struggle to come to terms with those relationships. During her voyage of self-discovery she will realize that sometimes all you need to survive in this world are a good sense of humour, inner strength, love of friends and family and the belief that there is always hope. Sometimes we don't realize how strong we really are until we're forced to fight for our lives and those of our loved ones. Sometimes we get so lost in the darkness that we can't find our way back to the light. Sometimes our entire world has to be blown away before we can finally find ourselves on the path we're meant to be on. Never give up. Never lose hope. You're not alone.
