Mark Simmonds' life was mapped out from the very beginning: go
to university, climb the corporate ladder, marry and have children. But life
isn't so easy, and success is hard to manage. After making what seemed like the
right move in his career, Mark suffered from increasing levels of stress and
anxiety, leading to his nervous breakdown.
As
the ground he'd stood on for years started to crumble, Mark did something he
never thought he'd do: he stepped back from his work to focus on creating a
balance in his life. But then his world fell apart for a second time when his
daughter, Emily, became anorexic.
Finding
strength he never knew he had, Mark fought alongside Emily, both lost, both
scared, but finding solace in one other.
Breakdown and Repair tells the touching tale of
a father saving himself by saving his daughter.
