Description

** SIGNED COPY ** PRE-ORDER NOW FOR 7TH MAY 2026 **

Actress, check. Wife, check. Mother, check.

In control of her own mind? Well… After a lifetime of getting everything ‘right’ – marrying her childhood sweetheart, starring in hits from Fresh Meat and Cranford to Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, having a much-longed-for baby – Kimberley Nixon’s brain broke. Or, more specifically, OCD won.

‘From the outside, I was coping. Inside, my brain was on fire.’

She Seems Fine to Me is not a tidy recovery story. In this jaw-droppingly honest and darkly funny memoir, Kimberley shares what it’s like to become a mother while losing your sense of self, loving your child ferociously while being terrified of your own mind and the brutal gap between the rose-tinted version of motherhood we are sold and the more complicated reality. At once devastating and tender, Kim’s story will resonate with anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by motherhood, failed by the system or frightened by thoughts they were too ashamed to say out loud. It’s for anyone who has ever been told they looked fine when they were anything but.
