Publisher's Summary
A highly imaginative and relatable guide for anyone who needs the reassurance that suicide is never worth it.
Are you inclined to escape the crumminess of everyday life into fantasy worlds? Are you smart and imaginative in a way that isn't really suited to your surroundings? Are you definitely misunderstood, likely angry, and almost certainly depressed? Set Sytes, hailing from the UK, would prefer you stay alive and sort things out rather than the alternative, thanks. He figures there are better opportunities for you out there and lays it all out in a way that's compelling, funny, sharp, and useful.
This zine-turned-book (please don't call it a self-help guide, asks the author) is ultimately about how to be a person in the world. It can be done non-miserably, we promise.

Helpful and humorous
I liked this. The lighthearted jokes around the topic of the realities of suicide kept me listening without getting bummed or irritated. I love the term “pessimistic imaginatives” :)

Bandaide for a bruise?
I have no doubt this can be helpful to many!
we need to start somewhere.
I do believe it's almost like a bandaide to a bruise kind of problem.
I do believe it's not common knowledge (b/c big corps would make way less money) the root problem is true connection to another human and the lack of causes depression.
If from birth we lack an emotional connection- how do we Ever feel like we belong and truly connect to other humans- if our parents couldn't love us like we needed?
In a period of time when society deam it acceptable and even (sadly) encourages children leading children vs parents leading their children would be a conversation to help heal the cut.
Connecting (not virtually b/c let's face it, it's not true in person conversation and connection) to other humans is vital otherwise we experience negative side effects.

I loved it
This is amazing read and tells you truly how not to kill your self. However I think there’s a spiritual side to things for mental stability.
Thank you.

Helpful, Smart, Realistic and Funny. Doesn't Suck.
Well. I'm not going to kill myself now. Thanks a lot Set.
Now I have to figure out what I'm doing with the rest of my life.
A very good book that reaches some of us on a level that regular self-help could never do.
This book is like that one teacher in high school who seemed to understand and inspire you as you were tossed amidst a sea of faces who look at you like you're far too strange to exist... or don't look at you at all.
Lowly recommended by me, as that's the highest praise I can give. Highly recommended for you.
