Maybe You Should Talk to Someone - Lori Gottlieb

my review : ✮✮✮✮

The kind of book that makes you have a nice cry after reading.

This book is a love letter to therapy. With incredibly poignant writing Lori is able to be both incredibly touching and funny.

While nothing can take the place of therapy, this book does a damn good job of coming close.

Best enjoyed without any of your favorite vices. Try to tackle this one with a clear (and open!) mind.

you’ll love this book if you love:

A book you want to mark up and re-read
A self-help book written by a therapist, filled with knowledgeable and insightful routes toward growth
Acknowledging our own and society’s stigmas around therapy and mental health !!

my favorite quote:

“But part of getting to know yourself is to unknow yourself—to let go of the limiting stories you’ve told yourself about who you are so that you aren’t trapped by them, so you can live your life and not the story you’ve been telling yourself about your life.”
