This is very much an emotional read but definitely worthwhile. Keep in mind that this is a book about mental health and psychiatric disorders so there are a lot of content warnings. But I feel that I’ve learned a lot just from the book, and I also liked how they demonstrated that sometimes the professionals make mistakes too, and that’s part of being human. The professionals are human, and can’t always be expected to get everything right. I definitely have more respect of psychiatric and psychology students/professionals now.
