informative reflective fast-paced

4.0

This was a really interesting read that stresses the importance of being kind to yourself and getting help if you think you need it. I can definitely see how a lot of people have related to the author, and I love the message that even if you’re not extremely mentally ill, your negative feelings are still just as valid and deserving of treatment. I see a lot of books written by or for people with debilitating mental illnesses, but this is something i can connect to much more easily. The chapters are short and easy to read, and I like that a lot of the time the author gets straight to the point without a load of unnecessary waffle. I’m super grateful to the author for sharing her story in an effort to make others like her feel more seen.

It had a good start but I ended up getting quite bored as it seemed repetitive.

challenging emotional informative reflective fast-paced

4.25

this was way too relatable for my taste and reminded me again and again that i REALLY need therapy.

i appreciated the psychiatrist's note, because there were moments, when their counselling irritated me - although i probably have to remember that i'm in a completely different country and therapy might just be different in germany.

my emotions are all over the place, i'm really happy i finally read it, and i'm thankful to my teacher for lending me the book.

Interesting and relatable and hopeful book!

Defo recommend to anyone struggling with mental health issues or you have a mental illness or if you just want to find out more about mental health and what it is like living with certain illnesses.

Haven’t read a memoir in a long time but glad I managed to finish this!

Also, the title of this book is perfect 😹👏🏽
