At a very young age, Lucy Smith's mood dropped so low it went underground and died. Clinical major depression had taken its toll. Throughout her adolescence, Lucy struggled with painful social interactions and suicidal thoughts, learning to fantasize about living in a different world. When no one else was around, her inner world came alive, and she could dance, dream, act, sing, draw, and write her way into relief from reality. In the illustrated journal "The Dirt: An Illustrated, 100% Uncensored Memoir of a Girl with Mental Illness," Lucy acknowledges her struggles with mental illness and channels her internal dialogue into an outer dialogue that simultaneously informs and helps others.

The Story of William and Lucy Smith
