Are you having trouble holding onto reality and getting out of the dumps? All of the above? Sounds like you’re freaking out.Simone has been there, and she made herself a book to remind her, page by page, exactly what to do to get herself out of danger. She has used that template here so that you can create your own guide suited to your needs. She also shares the vital skills that she has learned over the years for managing her mental health and remembering her reasons to live.Even if you can’t afford a therapist or hospital stay and the people around you are anything but helpful, you can still use those same tools to get better. It’s difficult sometimes to acknowledge to yourself that you’re worth it. It might be downright unbearable. But you know what? You’re so worth it! And this book is here to help you realize it.With a foreword by the one­ and ­only Dr. Faith
