Description
By Mental Health America, Gemma Correll
It can be extremely hard to figure out what's going on in our own heads when we are suffering-when we feel alone and unworthy and can't stop our self-critical inner voice. And it's even more difficult to know where to go for answers. But this book can help. Here you'll find clear, honest, jargon-free information about all the most common mental illnesses, including a first self-assessment test; tips on how to get help and how to talk about your mental health with friends, family, and medical professionals; and tools for staying healthy. Plus, the book's accessible and reassuring information and resources are interspersed with insightful and very funny drawings by acclaimed cartoonist Gemma Correll. This will be a book that you'll cherish.
