  • Summary

  • In this scripted Audible Original, five mentally ill teenagers in an inpatient wilderness program during the apocalypse face not only the end of the world, but also the end of their prescriptions. Now, they have to figure out what’s real and what’s just a side effect, and keep their wits about them as they fight for their lives and their minds. Apocalypse Untreated is a multi-part, post-apocalyptic thriller brought to life with world class sound design, and performance. The story moves between real-time action, audio diaries, and archival therapy sessions as our central characters struggle for survival in a deteriorating world.

    Apocalypse Untreated is created by Gaby Dunn, an actor, podcaster, LGBTQ activist and New York Times best-selling author and focuses on themes of survival, queer identity, and mental health. Also starring Chanel Ali (Girl Code), Jes Tom (Soojung Dreams of Fiji), Adam Faison (Everything’s Going to Be Ok), and a full cast.

I love this book

The performance is amazing, the story line is great, the way it portrays different mental illnesses is perfect. I don’t think I have anything bad to say about this. Definitely worth a read if you’re into the post apocalyptic genre

Worth your time

This was a surprisingly enjoyable find. Engaging story and characters that felt real. I love a bit of apocalyptic fun and was not disappointed with this believable story.

mental awareness

this had the potential to be a real eye opener for those of us with mental health issues. The chapters were too short in time length, they could have been merged to make them longer. you hardly had time to enjoy the 6 minute long chapters before down loading the next chapter. There was a powerful message to be conveyed, but sadly missed due to chapter time distractions. Fix it and this story will reveal what the author intended.

Worth giving a chance

At first I found the story/style hard to get into but by the end I wanted more.

Great Premise, could have been longer

Wish it had been just a little longer, hope there's a sequel to round off the story.

Can't wait for more

I binged it from the first episode to the last.
love the ragtag group and the mental challenges they face on top of the world ending.
The dark humour is a winner for me although Sasha's character is a little too like Harley Quinn at first.
Loved it.

Great listen. funny and touching

Not what I expected but I was super impressed with the sensitive but funny way they handled the stigmatised topic of mental health. Really felt the funny bits were funny and the serious moments land very well.
