We Are Absolutely Not Okay: Fourteen Stories by Teenagers Who Are Picking Up the Pieces
Imagine being asked to pull a gun on a stranger. Or having a gun shoved in your face by the man you call stepdad.
Envision feeling so depressed you cut yourself repeatedly or down a bottle of pills to make the pain go away. Consider what it takes to tell your parents that you are transgender, or what it feels like to have the dad you love addicted to meth.
We Are Absolutely Not Okay is a collection of true stories written by fourteen teenagers who have experienced life at its darkest but have made it through and are now picking up the pieces. By writing and sharing their stories, they are coping with their past and seizing their future.
