Description

The Vile Place Damaged by the System is a deeply personal and harrowing account of Niamh Conlen's traumatic experience at a Roman Catholic school in the 1970s. At just 11 years old, she was forced to attend an institution that failed to provide her with even basic support or care.

The consequences of this neglect were devastating: Niamh suffered from severe mental illness, including OCD, ritual behaviour, delusions, paranoia, agoraphobia, and deep depression. Her story is a powerful exploration of the long-lasting impact of trauma on an individual's life.
