Looking for a funny book about mental health that tackles chaos with dark humour and brutal honesty. A hilarious gift for people with OCD, parents of stinky teenage lads, or anyone who has ever felt personally victimised by crumbs.

Meet Trudy Spackle. A mum trying to manage OCD… while being emotionally assaulted by explosive teenage farts, cursed teddy bears, and microwaves that definitely want her dead.

If you have ever:

• Cleaned until your hands squeaked like freshly waxed floors
• Had a single crumb destroy your will to live
• Checked a door lock five times then checked again because the second check was a liar
• Been terrified of your own kids lurking at 3 a.m. like possessed WiFi gremlins
• Needed to hide your toothbrush like a weapon of survival
• Witnessed “biological warfare” in your own home
• …then you are going to feel seen. And you are going to laugh. Hard.

What makes this the perfect funny gift:

• A humour book about OCD that is still totally relatable even if you do not have OCD
• For parents of teenagers, especially the fart-firing variety
• Loaded with dark humour, sarcasm, and chaotic parenting energy
• Brilliant for birthdays, Christmas, or as a treat for someone who just needs a good laugh
• A relatable look at anxiety and intrusive thoughts without the heavy lecture

This book is here for:

• People who love inappropriate humour
• Anyone who cleans to cope
• Exhausted mums and dads
• Listeners who love honest comedy with zero sugar-coating

Because when life smells like teenage despair and antibacterial wipes… laughter is the only logical response.

Welcome to Trudy’s brain. Sanitise your hands. Put down the crumbs. And enjoy the chaos.
