Marni is the powerful true-life story of one girl's painful relationship with her father following her parent's divorce, her turbulent adolescence resulting in depression and homeschooling, and her ultimate discovery that she suffers from a relatively rare and misunderstood stress disorder called trichotillomania, which causes people to pull out their body hair.

Unable to deal with the mounting stress at home, in school, and with friends, Marni's compulsion to pluck out her eyebrows, eyelashes . . . even the hair from the top of her head, helped her to quiet her mind and escape the pressures of the world around her.
Marni first began pulling the summer just before entering high school, and she was immediately hooked. Unfortunately, by the time she discovered that her habit was an actual disordertrichotillomania or "trich"it was way too late. "When I stared at the mirror and tried to recognize the girl without eyebrows, eyelashes, and bangs as myself and failed, I knew something had gone horribly wrong."
