About this listen

A no-nonsense and helpful guide on how to cope with a slew of mental-health issues that are hell-bent on ruining the lives of millions of people worldwide

Our brains do their best to help us out, but every so often they can be real assholes - having meltdowns, getting addicted to things, or shutting down completely at the worst possible moments. Your brain knows it's not good to do these things, but it can't help it sometimes - especially if it's obsessing about trauma it can't overcome. That's where this life-changing book comes in.

With humor, patience, science, and lots of good-ole swearing, Dr. Faith explains what's going on in your skull, and talks you through the process of retraining your brain to respond appropriately to the non-emergencies of everyday life, and to deal effectively with old, or newly acquired, traumas (particularly post-traumatic stress disorder).

I’m not normally one for audiobooks but since this wasn’t available at my local bookstore I decided to give it a try… I knew right away that this was something I was going to enjoy from the first little anecdote… And to most of the points she was making it really hit home for me. The swearing is a little awkward but most of the time it just makes me laugh, and genuinely parts of this book made me say “hell yeah!” And/ or “amen” like somebody finally said and acknowledged what I’ve been feeling all along !

I had a feeling I needed this book

she helped me look at things in a different way helping me get unstuck from thinking in many ways looking forward to more books from her and the foul language resonates in me its how I communicate not for everyone helpful for me

I usually get scared when I hear swearing because I feel like someone’s mad at me. But listening to this helped me reduce my sensitivity to swearing because they are incorporated into helpful lessons about powerful feelings and validation and reassurance.

Helps me desensitise

Book was okay but the woman's voice is annoying and there is a lot of swearing. Also the audio was the pits 👎

Crappy Audio

The psychology was interesting and the lax and candid way the author discusses the concepts in lay-terms with colourful curse words was a comfortable way to understand the fuckery in one's head, but the quality of the audiobook could benefit from a re-do. The audio was echo-y, I often heard the reader's lips smack, pages shuffling, something else moving around in the room she was recording in.

On the fence..

I found the info very good and helpful, however I found the constant use of swear words quite distracting. I understand that the goal is to keep people engaged and do something different, but I think it was slightly too frequent. I think if you cut some of it out it would be a lot better (sometimes the swearing sounded forced)

Good info, but too much swearing

Great info and a very good listen, however, the recording quality is sub par as well as the narration it's self. I would still recommend this book though audiophiles and easily distracted listeners such as my self might not enjoy the background noise and grainy quality of the recording.

Inspiring, funny, explains intricate concepts in a simple easy method.

Oddly enough, the profanity helped me engage in listening to this book somehow.

A friend told me to read this book and I’m glad she did. I’m not a big reader but this had me thinking, laughing and learning different strategies when dealing with certain situations. Highly recommend.
