Messy and disappointing
As the book admits in the first pages, it is messy and has no structure. My issue with this book is that it's like a diary created for the author's comfort, it is not created for us (the readers). I often can't relate to it, and it feels like I'm reading about him venting about himself rather than comforting me. I personally disn't expect to pay to read someone else's journal.

This book changed my life. The perceptions and insights Haig gives are rich with hope, self-acceptance and comfort. Haig is my favorite author for his candid perceptions of the human condition with all of its highs and lows. Buy thins book for yourself and for others, because there’s something for everyone within its pages.

I took this book out of the library and liked it so much I had to buy it so I can dive into it on a regular basis. I have read of Matt's mental health struggles which makes it even more relevant for me.
