It's All In Your Head: A Guide to Getting Your Sh*t Together by Rae Earl

4.0

A brilliant and insightful read, discussing a variety of important topics regarding mental illness. Rae Earl has created an incredibly easy read, that is full to the brim with information, without feeling 'info dumpy'. It's funny, educational and refreshingly honest. Written in a casual way, with fun graphics and diagrams, It's All In Your Head felt like a discussion with a friend and I'd highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn more about their brain, or the brain of those around them, in a way that isn't overwhelming or bogged down with scientific jargon. Rae Earl doesn't go into too much graphic detail but I'd definitely advise being cautious going into this, if you are triggered by certain aspects of discussion on mental illness. However, if you are sensitive to specific topics, the chapter guide at the beginning works brilliantly as a trigger warning guide. So you can pick and choose which chapters to read or not, depending on what's safest for you.
