The Power of Prayer and Paracetamol

One in four people will experience mental health difficulties a year, one in five has suicidal thoughts, and one in six children are sexually abused. In The Power of Prayer and Paracetamol, author Evelyn Hope narrates her story to help others feel less alone and to realise their godly worth. She seeks to alleviate the pain and sorrow that arises from different life experiences. Hope communicates there is light among the darkness. This memoir follows Hope through a challenging childhood, difficult relationships, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, complex post-traumatic stress disorder from childhood sexual abuse, general eating difficulties, and Anorexia Nervosa. Hope shares how identity in Christ helped set her free, allowing her to not only survive but to live life with hope and true joy. The Power of Prayer and Paracetamol not only tells Hope's personal story, but also offers resources and a reading list to provide additional support. It encourages those struggling with mental health issues to reach out and ask for help, emphasising that all are important and loved.
