'Clever, kind, funny and wise, this book is an uplifting and useful addition to your self help library.’ Daisy Buchanan, How to Be a Grown-Up We’re all talking about mental health a lot more now than we were ten years ago, which is great . . . isn’t it? Kate Lucey has been ‘officially’ depressed (as in, diagnosed) for six years. In that time she’s experienced everything from bad therapy, knock-out meds, and friends-with-too-many-opinions, to good therapy, medication, and solutions that actually work.This book recognises that getting help is not as easy as ‘just telling someone’ or ‘taking some pills’. It weaves real peoples’ experiences of depression with the opinions of actual qualified experts and facts from scientific studies to create a no-nonsense guide to mental health.Funny, irreverent, and relatable, Get a Grip, Love also tells you what to say to those mates who fancy themselves as amateur psychologists, and speaks honestly about how it feels to live with a mental health disorder.Crucially, as well as poking fun at mental illness and all its absurdities (because what are we without laughter, hey?), Kate reminds you that it’s fine not to feel ok. That you can go back to crying at any time. And that you do not need to get a grip.In Get a Grip, Love, Kate Lucey provides a top-tier self-help guide that delves into the intricacies of emotions and mood disorders. Her motivational and inspirational approach to mental health is a testament to her expertise in psychology, making this book a valuable resource for healing.For fans of James Withey (How To Tell Depression to Piss Off), Matt Haig (The Comfort Book), Tom Allen (No Shame), Bryony Gordon (No Such Thing as Normal), and Sally Brampton (Shoot the Damn Dog).
