Anne McTiernan begins her second memoir at age twenty-nine, soon
after completing her doctoral training in public health research at
the University of Washington. She and her husband are now parents
to four-year-old and three-month-old girls. She realizes that jobs
in her field are scarce, especially for women and decides she needs
better credentials to land a job. Overcoming her fear and life-long
struggle with inadequacy, Anne moves the family 3,000 miles to New
York, where she begins medical school. Within a few months of
starting this new life, Anne is in deep trouble. She cannot handle
the competing demands and feels isolated. The stress builds, until
Anne suffers a series of paralyzing panic attacks that threaten her
ability to function. She begins psychotherapy and starts on a
journey of self-discovery, realizing she has to change to survive.
Cured is the follow-up to her 2016 release Starved and differs from
other physician memoirs in its themes of motherhood, mental
illness, and the perspective of a female physician on how she
turned adversity into a strength and set of skills.
