It is estimated that Body
dysmorphic disorder affects 1 in 50 people, yet
only five memoirs have ever been written on this subject. Even more surprising, is that out of these, 'My Face and God' is the only one that is faith-based, making it a completely unique read
My face and god
A Memoir
Ever wondered why, in a world obsessed with face filters and lip fillers, everyone is starting to look the same? If you have, join Tracy as she offers a rare glimpse into the secretive thought process that fuels such choices.
​
Growing up in 1980s Ireland, Tracy was just a little girl—yet already tormented by what she saw in the mirror. While others saw a child, she saw a face she believed was broken. What followed was a private war with facial dysmorphia, jealousy, self-hatred, and shame. Long before Botox and beauty apps, Tracy was already desperate to change how she looked… or disappear altogether.
​
But everything changed after an unexpected encounter with Jesus in a darkened movie theatre while watching The Passion of the Christ. What followed was nothing short of a mind-healing miracle—without a therapist, without a prescription, and without surgery.
​
With piercing honesty and spiritual clarity, Tracy shares her lifelong journey through the depths of body-image trauma, postnatal depression, and near surrender to society’s pressure to “fix” her face. This is not just a story of healing—it's a wake-up call for a generation in crisis.
