Publisher's Summary

A no-nonsense and helpful guide on how to cope with a slew of mental-health issues that are hell-bent on ruining the lives of millions of people worldwide

Our brains do their best to help us out, but every so often they can be real assholes - having meltdowns, getting addicted to things, or shutting down completely at the worst possible moments. Your brain knows it's not good to do these things, but it can't help it sometimes - especially if it's obsessing about trauma it can't overcome. That's where this life-changing book comes in.

With humor, patience, science, and lots of good-ole swearing, Dr. Faith explains what's going on in your skull, and talks you through the process of retraining your brain to respond appropriately to the non-emergencies of everyday life, and to deal effectively with old, or newly acquired, traumas (particularly post-traumatic stress disorder).

Too much swearing .. & I’m someone who swears!... information for teenagers maybe ... but the accentuated trashy language makes it hard to focus ... there are stretches that no f words happen & the info is ok

swearing doesn't make it cool

The author tries to make some good points, but thinks that swearing every second paragraph makes her cool.

Very poor sound quality. would not recommend.

Completely unnecessary language

The information in the book was really good but the person reading it swearing all the time etc was a complete put off.

Great Book!

This is a great book and I highly recommend it for anyone starting their healing journey.
My only issues with it was the overlaps of the audio here and there and the chapters not lining up.

Fantastic book

The message is fantastic. The swearing feels a little forced at times and the sound isnt perfect but it is in no way a problem. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

So relatable and helpful

Listening to this I thought “wow the author found the best person to narrate this” to find at the end it was her! Thank you Faith for explaining in depth what the F*** is actually going on up there. Looking forward to more down to earth publications.

Excellent content, audio could be better

Content is great (language warning of course), and the narration was great, but the audio production quality could be better. Worth it overall though.

The title

I loved the theory and the knowledge behind this book and given the title I knew there would be swearing, but I found it a little out of control at times. Definitely not necessary as almost every third word!
