It's not that the techniques presented in this book were bad by any means, but it was very difficult to get past the "I'm not just an author and therapist, I'm a cool author and therapist" vibe from this book. Some parts were literally painful to get through

Useful. Plain talk with swearing and lots of tips and understanding.

While not the most ground breaking book on coping skills and mental health, I think it’s good for people just getting into this kind of work but also those who are currently stuck in a really bad place. The latter being me, while I knew most of these skills and theoretical underpinnings I’ve been in such a low place that just hearing the basics again (in such a friendly but honest way) helped me feel some hope and gave me a gentle kick up the behind to start doing more for myself.

Some good advice however there is a lot of cursing. I almost feels like a teenager that just learned how to curse and took very much away from the experience in my opinion. I can see this book being lovely for some people, I am personally just not one of those people.
