brilliantly funny yet a punch to the gut with her honesty and vulnerability. At first i wasnt sure what was going on but then i read on and just thought she is comedy genius with a heart on the outside. glorious book

Failed to connect. The start wasn't remotely funny, and the anxiety levels of the whole thing (written in snippets that jumped so much!) just felt like they kept ramping up the tension, so all in all, it was more harrowing than entertaining let alone laugh-inducing. Sadly, this one was a miss for me

I think this book was meant to be funny, but I just found it sad.
During a therapy session, Georgia was advised to write down all the things that made her anxious after she failed to find the right words to vocalise her fears. This book is the result of that list. It is not a secret that I have suffered with anxiety for a while, so when this was offered to me to review, I jumped at the opportunity. This had me laughing, empathising, and bonding with Georgia, by the time I had finished coming full circle with her, I felt like I had made a new friend.
This is a memoir with a difference. Although this is a serious topic, Georgia writes with humour, failing to take herself too seriously as she guides her readers through her life. It is written really well, with short sharp chapters, making it easy to follow and this does not have the heaviness that some mental health books can have. This is a light, fluffy way of looking at anxiety and bringing awareness of the subject from an insider's perspective.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and highly recommend it to all.

The book is funny and Georgia has an amazing sense of humour. I really liked the names she gave to the people around her. However, sometimes I would feel lost in the book.
