“This book is a road map which most people will benefit from. It deals with anxiety and depression, but differently to other books available in that the author, Dr Murphy, a Clinical Psychologist by training, is calling on people to become their real selves. This book is about what it means to live a real and authentic existence, to de-shackle your self from what society says you should be as a mother, a father, a nurse, an accountant and to listen to your own uniqueness, to understand that your previous life till now does not have to take the same trajectory. Dr Murphy’s empathy, love and caring attitude can be felt throughout the book, creating an internal guide for the reader. When I was reading the book and started to become critical of myself, Dr Murphy intuitively understood that readers might be doing this and the following paragraph would then ask us not to be hard on ourselves, that we do not need to get stuck in a groove.”
