Nonfiction Health

It's All in Your Head is a comprehensive, positive and wise guide to mental health - a subject that directly affects one in four of us each year and indirectly affects millions more. Nonreverential and darkly funny, the audiobook aims to take mental health discussions out of the margin and make them mainstream and accessible. Rae Earl, author of My Mad Fat Diary, writes about her own experiences and speaks to teens and young people about theirs.

During a travel in Romania as a social clown, in October 2006, together with my friends we visited an institute hosting orphaned. The children were more than a hundred and the service staff in total counted no more than six people. In particular, I was impressed by a child among many; although he was three years old, he wasn’t able to speak. No one spent time teaching him. Something broke and, at the same time, something was born in me. It was a new awareness that, left for years at the bottom of my heart, day after day, pulse after pulse, helped me in writing this audiobook.
