Thanks to NetGalley, Gallery Books, and Jen Gotch for the opportunity to read this wonderful book. 5 stars for a book that will hopefully continue the discussion of mental illness but also address many other important issues.
Jen Gotch has spent her life struggling against anxiety and depression, getting bad diagnoses and prescriptions. This book walks you through her journey of fighting to get proper care and rebalance her life. But it's done in a way that is so relatable, honest and funny. Along with the mental illness talk, so much can be learned from this book - changing our viewpoint to being optimistic, stopping equating being "busy" with being successful, balancing work/life.
Although before reading this book I was unaware of Gotch's podcasts or company ban.do, this is a book that battles important topics in such a positive way. As one who has dealt with the mental illness and suicide of someone close, the fact that we can talk openly about these issues is life-changing. Highly recommended.
