Synopsis

When his career in music seemingly fell apart, Shocka - then one-third of the grime collective Marvell - found himself in hospital for his deteriorating mental health. He went on to be sectioned a total of four times, receiving a diagnosis of schizophrenia along the way.

In A Section of My Life, you will read Shocka's raw retelling of his incredible, inspiring life story. Interlaced with each chapter are poems that he wrote while he was in hospital. Alongside each poem, he has included thought-provoking questions to help you explore your mental health and purpose in life, as well as space to journal your answers.

But it all starts with a simple question that Shocka asked God at the beginning of his own journey: how can I help? Now, he knows the answer, and he hopes that the same question can inspire you to find your purpose too - and that you'll learn to love and accept yourself, no matter what.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Shocka, aka Kenneth Erhahon, is a rapper and mental health advocate from Tottenham, London. He gained recognition for being one-third of the grime collective Marvell, alongside Double S and Vertex. After dealing with mental health issues himself, Shocka became an advocate and started using his music to help those suffering from their own problems. He has since released songs including "Self Love" and his debut album, Impact Over Numbers, all of which reflect his personal journey with mental health and how he has come to terms with his difficulties. He has also been a TED Talk speaker, and he has been a guest on numerous talk shows to raise mental health awareness. Shocka believes that, by teaching someone how to love and appreciate themselves - no matter their background or identity - they will drastically improve their ability to go through life positively.You can follow Shocka on Instagram @shocka_artist
