I kept trying and trying to make this book work. Finally DNFd at 82% and was mad I made it that far and just couldn't keep going. It had nuggets of insight but was overall boring.

I am at the beginning of a long journey of mental health. I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar 2 and this book is an incredible resource for understanding and coping with anxiety. This is book is a resource out to not provide a solution for your problems but rather find acceptance in who you are. Anyone with anxiety, mania, or any mental health disorder with up energy needs this book. The loved ones of those struggling can benefit as well.

I had really high expectations for this book and instead I found myself dragging through it.

Hated it. Hated it, hated it, hated it. Tone dead privilege on every page. Gross.

Mostly anecdotal and meant to inspire via sharing personal stories and advice, there are some interesting bits within, if you can get through the meandering. It seemed like whenever I was getting bored or it was getting repetitive she would drop an absolute gem that spoke to me. I'm not sure this is the best book to read about anxiety, but it wasn't a waste of time.

2 stars for the author being real and vulnerable. Also only 2 stars for this being categorized as a "self-help" or "psychology" book instead of an "autobiography"
