Yeah, so about Leah Messer's new book ...
What a mess, right?
She's come a long way in the past few years, just from what we've seen on Teen Mom 2, but now that she's revealing all these things we never knew about her past, we can see that she's really turned her whole entire life around.
The book comes out on May 5th, but in the past couple of weeks she's been releasing bits and pieces, little snippets of stories to get people interested.
And boy, did it work.
It actually worked a little too well, because after some stories she's told about her mother, a lot of people are pretty outraged.
But Leah has a statement to make on that!
1. Oh, Leah
Leah apparently has lots of stories to tell in her upcoming memoir, but today, let's just focus on the ones involving her mother, Dawn.
2. Whoa
Because those sure are some crazy, crazy stories.
3. Ew
In one excerpt that was released earlier this week, Leah recounted a story of how Dawn once pressured her into having sex with a random boy when she was a young teenager.
4. Yikes
She said that her mom used to hang out whenever she had friends over, “I think because she never went to high school, or even got to be a normal teenager, there was a part of her that felt like she had missed out on something."
5. Oh OK
"She wasn’t even allowed to talk to boys before she met my dad and got pregnant with me, so she liked hanging out with our friends and being around that energy," she explained.
6. Uh Oh
During this same time period, Leah said that Dawn had started going to therapy and that while she'd been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, she wouldn't take her meds, "so she was totally unpredictable. One second she’d be flying high and the next she’d spiral into a dark place."
