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.

This book is a perfect first step. Here you'll find clear, honest, reassuring information about all the most common mental illnesses and what you can do to find help and to practice self-care.

Where to Start features-

jargon-free information about all the most common mental illnesses, including a first self-assessment test; tips on how to get professional help and how to talk about your mental health with friends and family; essential tools, including handy worksheets and DIY mental health content; and insightful, funny drawings by acclaimed cartoonist Gemma Correll.
