OCD, addiction explored in ‘meaningful’ book

The book is “Body Punishment: OCD, Addiction and Finding the Courage to Heal,” by Maggie Lamond Simone, a freelance writer living in Central New York.

“The book drifts back and forth through various stages of her life, painting a kaleidoscopic vision through her eyes – highly colorful, dramatic, passionate, sharp, and disruptive at times, though beautiful when seeing it as a whole.
“It is easy for a reader to find his or her own voice somewhere in the pages of this meaningful work,” he says.
In an article on the website for the State University of New York at Oswego, where Simone is an adjunct instructor in journalism and public speaking, the author says, “I hope the book says a lot to people who struggle with all sorts of disorders. I hope it says ‘You‘re not the only one.‘”
