Comment on What are some good memoirs or autobiography about someone who had a rough childhood, especially victims of child abuse/neglect?

Not asian or bullying, but “I’m glad my mom died” by Jennette McCurdy is really strong. A mother living her own dreams through her daughters acting career, alternating between extreme emotional states. I thinks its writtem very well and describes her struggles getting out of the pressure by her mother and out of her own behavior pattterns learned since early childhood.

Though I cannot say, if this can be used as a guide. From what I remember the key learnings maybe would be: Get out, suround yourself with better people and get therapy. Though I might misrepresent the book with that
