5.0
Its vivid and repetitive just like the state of a mind dealing with depression and anxiety.
Just like the author mentions in one of the essays how they hate being told to cheer up and would rather someone listen to them and empathise, reading this book I felt that someone could empathise with my struggles too.
My only regret with the book is that I could have read it slower to take things in more properly but as I connected with the subject matter a lot that proved a struggle.

I also thought it was really interesting to delve into the mind of someone who I don’t relate much to and to see how a different culture affects mental health.

The author’s experience of domestic violence as a child is never connected to her mental health issues
