Description
Our brains do their best to help us out, but each and every so incessantly they are able to be real assholes―having melt downs, getting addicted to things, or shutting down completely at the worst imaginable moments. Your brain knows it’s not good to do these things, but it can’t help it from time to time―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 a whole lot 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 correctly to the non-emergencies of on a regular basis life, and to deal effectively with old, or newly acquired, traumas (particularly post-traumatic stress disorder).
