This is the saddest shit I've read in a while. It's one of these books where the author is truly baring their soul even if they're also clearly lying to themselves or recalling events in self-serving or rationalizing ways. This woman has massive unsolved daddy issues and it's very clear that everything she did is an attempt to deal with a sense of inadequacy in her father's eyes and a perceived lack of affection from him and, to a lesser extent, her mother as well.
