is it true rest and relaxation if you are in psychosis?

please read this and go into it BLIND. check TWs just in case, but the less you know, the better.

i was fully prepared to give this book 3 stars but the ending redeemed it for my and that final chapter gave me full body chills and just tied it all together so perfectly so i had to go with 4.
