Because we are bad : OCD and a girl lost in thought / Lily Bailey.
As a child, Lily Bailey knew she was bad. By the age of 13, she had killed someone with a thought, spread untold disease, and ogled the bodies of other children. Only by performing secret routines could she correct her wrongdoing. But it was never enough. She had a severe case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and it came with a bizarre twist. Candidly raw, this is a fascinating true story from a startlingly original voice.
