From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library.
“A very special book that has provided a beam of hope to so many.”—DOLLY ALDERTON
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FEEL TRULY ALIVE?

Aged 24, Matt Haig's world caved in. He could see no way to go on living. This is the true story of how he came through crisis, triumphed over an illness that almost destroyed him, and learned to live again.
It has helped millions of people do the same. Moving, funny, and even joyous, these are the lessons Matt learned. His reasons to stay alive.
"I wrote this book because the oldest clichés remain the truest. Time heals. The bottom of the valley never provides the clearest view. The tunnel does have light at the end of it, even if we haven't been able to see it . . . Words, just sometimes, really can set you free."

      Popular novelist Matt Haig (THE RADLEYS, THE DEAD FATHERS CLUB) provides a vocal performance as frank and honest as the story he recounts. As he describes his triumph over suicidal thoughts and his continual struggles with anxiety and depression, his pacing is measured enough for the listener to take in the weight of his suffering without it feeling cumbersome. He strikes a nice balance between the detached recollection of his first excruciating symptoms of mental illness and his passionate hope for continued recovery. The intensely personal significance that the text holds for Haig, coupled with his desire to connect with others in the same situation, makes for an intimate and meaningful listen.
