Summary
A shocking, heart-rending and blisteringly funny account of what it's like to live with mental illness, by a powerful new comic voice.

When Michelle Thomas suffered her first major depressive episode six years ago, she read and watched and listened to everything about mental health she could get her hands on in an effort to fix herself. God, it was tedious. And, quite frankly, depressing.

Which is the last thing she needed.

What she did need was a therapist who would listen and offer a wellness strategy catered to her specific needs. What she got was advice to watch a few YouTube videos and a cheerful reminder that 'it could be worse'.

An honest, hilarious and heart-rending account of living with mental illness, My Sh*t Therapist will help you navigate the world, care for your mind and get through sh*t diagnoses, jobs, medications, boyfriends, habits, homes and therapists.

You'll find no scented candles or matcha tea 'cures' for mental illness here. Instead, learn how a modern woman and her friends and followers navigate life with their brilliant but unpredictably sh*t brains.

Having a crappy mental health day? I've got you.
Want to chat antidepressants and breakdowns?
Pull up a pew and let's get into it.

Absolutely the best book I have ever read on mental health. The author's honest, first-hand experience of depression, the ways and costs of coping with it, the imperfect healthcare system, the stigmas that still exist in society and the little practical treasures of everyday life that help us survive. All with a healthy dose of sarcasm and humour. I cried and laughed. Bravo!

Chaotic at first and then depressingly exposing of the confusing range of therapies and therapists and the pot luck involved in finding the right one for you. The chaos was merely a searingly honest account of a suffering mind and the numerous conditions and crises Michelle Thomas suffered. You have to go through all this with her to get the message that there is help and to know your own mind is key to recognising impending crisis, avoiding situations and people who will set them off.
