Nobody expected Rory OConnor to succeed – he was considered "thick" in school and struggled to find a career he felt he could excel in. However, when a hot tip led to a win on the horses, it marked the beginning of a dangerous descent into a gambling addiction that further eroded his self-esteem. How did the man who felt he had nothing to live for go on to become a stand-up comedian selling out venues around Ireland and reaching 800,000 people through his social media platforms? This is Rory's Story. Told with his trademark humor, this straight-talking memoir is a book for anyone who wants to be inspired by an ordinary man's mental health journey.
