novella42's review against another edition
I adored her essay / letter to the health insurance system. This is such a good book, and I think it's sadly beyond my capacity to handle. There's just a lot of things in it that hit my personal traumas. I tried skipping chapters, tried powering through, and finally accepted that it would be kinder to my mental health to not read this particular book on mental health. I lau hed aloud at many points, though, and I can think of half a dozen people who would love this and not have the same issues with it that I did.
Graphic: Body horror, Gore, Mental illness, Panic attacks/disorders, Excrement, Medical content, Dementia, Medical trauma, and Injury/Injury detail
