Resumen del Editor

The Wall Street Journal bestseller!

Stop battling your emotions and engage them to live a better life.

You’ve been told that it’s a subtle art to not give a f*ck, to only live, laugh, and love, and to f*ck your feelings. That’s impossible and unhealthy. What if you could stop trying to fix your emotions and work with them instead of against them—even the “bad” ones?

Give a F*ck, Actually is the self-help guidebook to doing that with Radical Emotional Acceptance, a simple five-step process for having a healthy relationship with your emotions in real time. Developed by psychiatrist Dr. Alex Wills through over 15,000 hours with patients, REA stops the fight against your own feelings and allows you to acknowledge, accept, interpret, and act on emotions—even the painful ones that you are told to suppress—before they become a problem. Rather than pretending you don’t give a f*ck, REA helps you embrace your f*cks and learn from them emotional data to live a fuller life.

Give a F*ck, Actually integrates teaching with anecdotes, historical lessons, and narrative encounters with patients to demonstrate REA in action. The result is an unforgettable how-to guide for emotions that will change your life.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Give a F*ck, Actually is an honest, practical, and entertaining guide to feeling, accepting, and learning from your emotions. There are so many self-help tactics out there that just serve to help us avoid our painful emotions as opposed to actually meet, listen, and accept them. Alex Wills has used his experience as a psychiatrist, and as a person committed to working through his own emotional pain, to provide 5 simple pillars to help each of us form a much healthier relationship to our emotions.”—Noah Elkrief, #1 bestselling author of A Guide to the Present Moment

"The more deeply you can feel a 'negative' emotion, accept it, and not [necessarily] act on it, the closer you can get emotionally to another person."—Mark Goulston, MD, bestselling author of Just Listen

“I'm here to tell you that it works.... Give it a shot!"—Cenk Uyger, The Young Turks

Wonderful and Helpful

I loved this book! The stories of what the patients experienced really helped illustrate the point. I found myself already utilizing the practices before I even finished the book. It's a quick listen that could change your life.
