In the book, he also discusses his lifelong experiences with depression, anxiety and panic attacks.

At age 18, Ogle came out to his parents and was immediately kicked out of his family home, after which he moved to New Orleans because he thought, "If I’m going to be homeless, I might as well be homeless somewhere cool."
