Emily Reynolds's A Beginner's Guide to Losing Your Mind explores the unique challenges, including: -- How to deal with pressure at school and college -- Tips for dating when you are mentally ill (and what to expect when you're on the other side) -- Handling self-harm and suicidal thoughts -- Advice for your family and friends -- Learning how to navigate the internet and the online community -- Advice on diagnosis, treatment, and maintaining your mental health A blackly funny, deeply compassionate, and extremely practical book, A Beginner's Guide to Losing Your Mind is all at once the author's personal account of what it's like to live with mental illness, a guide to dealing with and understanding it, and a companion to make the journey feel a little less lonely
