A bipolar diagnosis changed everything: she retired from sex work, walked away from Samantha X, and went in search of Amanda.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMisfit\u003c\/i\u003e is her third memoir - but the first written as 'herself'. Raw, honest, provocative, wise and often laugh-out-loud funny, this is an unflinching record of her journey along the bumpy path to healing and self-acceptance. Beyond confronting her bipolar disorder and addiction issues, Amanda must also contend with prejudice and judgement, lingering trauma from her earlier life, and her own crushing self-doubt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs she struggles with the realities of so-called normality, the persistent voice of Samantha X is there to remind her of a former life that offered power, money, fame - and protection from the challenges that Amanda has courageously chosen to tackle head-on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844651372780,"sku":"9781760688608","price":39.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/dd21ea84bd73947fd58005d74c03ef6c.jpg?v=1758964550","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/misfit-by-amanda-goff-9781760688608","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
