 Fly Fishing for Sharks A Memoir of life with OCD - Andrew Alexander - 2008 - Paperback in good condition.

Fly Fishing for Sharks is a memoir that examines Andrew Alexander’s experiences with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. He had a clinically severe case that encompassed many of the symptom profiles associated with OCD. His memoir deals extensively with the pernicious effects of religion on his mental health and explores the unique link between OCD and Depression. It also deals with suicide, sexuality and the broader issue of society’s treatment of the mentally ill.

His story is set mainly in southern Africa, in South Africa as well as Zimbabwe, which began to disintegrate just about when his own mental health did. The story, despite its serious nature, is also at times humorous.

Few books have explored the nightmare that is OCD in such depth. Written by a man who has been there and lived to tell the tale, Fly Fishing for Sharks is meant to help the thousands of people each year who fall prey to this disease and is sure to be a classic memoir on the subject.
