Go Ask Alice; First Thoughts, Overview, Summary.

Go Ask Alice is a fairly odd and interesting book to read. The way its set up is creative and quite understanding. The book is written as a anonymous diary. A author is a young girl who is strongly self conscience and she feels she is an outcast. She seems to have an average life just with average school stress. It's just the way she handles and interprets the stress and conflicts that pop up in her life. Later the girl is turned down by a boy that she loves. He asks her on a date and stands her up, she takes this seriously and believes she has lost the love of her life. The conflicts she experiences seem average and it just feels like she can't cope with stress or handle anything with conflict. She has multiple personalities and can be considered fake or lying to her self and others to make her self feel good. The girl resorts to drugs, diet, over eating, depression, and emotional/physical pain. She wants change and is glad she has to move. She tells her self things she needs to improve and it seems like she breaks her self promises and goes to negative peer pressure. She is lost in a life or ridicule and consistent conflict. I believe she is a too self conscience and needs to think of the good things in life, takes the easy way out and drowns in self pity. She likes to handle things the wrong way, she is a strong drug abuser and started out quite extreme with the drugs. He first drug used was LSD.
