About this listen

A no-nonsense and helpful guide on how to cope with a slew of mental-health issues that are hell-bent on ruining the lives of millions of people worldwide

Our brains do their best to help us out, but every so often they can be real assholes - having meltdowns, getting addicted to things, or shutting down completely at the worst possible moments. Your brain knows it's not good to do these things, but it can't help it sometimes - especially if it's obsessing about trauma it can't overcome. That's where this life-changing book comes in.

With humor, patience, science, and lots of good-ole swearing, Dr. Faith explains what's going on in your skull, and talks you through the process of retraining your brain to respond appropriately to the non-emergencies of everyday life, and to deal effectively with old, or newly acquired, traumas (particularly post-traumatic stress disorder).

Recording lacking, but a great book

The audio sounds like it was recorded on a pair of earbuds, otherwise a helpful and informative listen.

Great book

I love how she frames and explains depression and anxiety. I think she can give folks some sense of power over what can often feel overwhelming and out of control. It is an empowering way to frame it.

As a psych student, I hope I am as good as she is at explaining these mental health concerns to my clients.

F$%k you amygdala!!!

it's good! but...

love her energy, she definitely can hold my attention but background noises of what I'm assuming is a pet, a microphone scratching against a shirt collar perhaps and some super annoying nose whistling among lots more (I'm only on chapter 5) gives the overall only 3 starts imo

It’s good helpful shit

Yeah I’m not sure what’s up with all the angry reviews over the audio quality it’s really not that bad at all.

Content itself I found very helpful and informative however I can understand how people who are averted to “foul language” might be taken aback lol

Brief, brilliant and effective!

Unfuck your brain is a hidden gem, it is in my opinion the Kohinoor diamond of the Audible collection. Dr. Faith Harper is a powerful speaker, her content has depth, substance and she is impactful.

I have classic Asperger’s syndrome, am both genius and stupid at the same time. The parts about the prefrontal cortex, amygdala and brainstem was path breaking for me. The 90 seconds of emotion helped me handle a situation like never before.

Dr Faith Harper through this book equipped me with the tools needed to deal with a perennially painful tenant across the world who has triggered several meltdowns in the past. I’m now able to have conversations with the client without melting down or losing sleep/ peace of mind.

Have recommended it to people in my circle. I recommend this book for everyone. It’s an absolute must read. Dr. Faith Harper is a genius!

I got alot from this book

I really topk alot out of this book. Not only did I find the information highly accurate but I also found it easy to listen to bevauee of the language used. it felt real compared to the fake feeling i often get from my therapist. I retained what I listened too rather than forgetting everything right away. I love the combination of pure medical knowledge and the informative therapy standpoint. 10/10 recomend.
