How terrifying is it when you disappear from your everyday life and wake up somewhere else, without even knowing how you got there? That is the experience of someone with dissociative fugue - and that was the life Imogen Groome lived. A clever and quiet child, Imogen was marginalised and bullied at school. Sometimes she walked out of lessons, because she simply couldn't cope; sometimes, something inside her woke up, and "The Mad Traveller" took over.

Produktbeschreibung


How terrifying is it when you disappear from your everyday life and wake up somewhere else, without even knowing how you got there? That is the experience of someone with dissociative fugue - and that was the life Imogen Groome lived. A clever and quiet child, Imogen was marginalised and bullied at school. Sometimes she walked out of lessons, because she simply couldn't cope; sometimes, something inside her woke up, and "The Mad Traveller" took over.

Imogen was the girl who kept going missing. And as she struggled to deal with a life that just kept on getting harder, she zoned out more and more. But even when she found herself homeless in London, abused by the people she trusted, and forced to endure a life of compromise, Imogen never lost her faith in her ability to move beyond The Mad Traveller.

Imogen's story gives an astonishing insight into living with dissociative fugue, but more than that, it gives us an inspiring tale for our times. It is a very relatable story for anyone who has ever found themselves marginalised, alone or afraid. And at its heart, it is a story for anyone who has ever dared to dream big.

Autorenporträt
Imogen Groome is a journalist, copywriter and digital marketer living in London, England. She has worked in the creative industry for over six years, using her platform to speak out about mental health in Metro.co.uk, Huffington Post UK and more. The Mad Traveller is Imogen's first non-fiction book. It depicts her journey through dissociative fugue, or reversible amnesia, where she experienced memory loss and lost her sense of self as a response to extreme stress and anxiety. Some of her memories are still lost, but enough have returned to form a narrative describing what it's like to lose all sense of who you are. She has written her book in the hope that it will encourage people to speak openly about what's going on in their heads, and instill in them a belief that they can build a successful life while dealing with mental health issues.
