About the Book

RELAX! is not for the faint of heart. In fact, it contains foul language and potentially disturbing ideas. Nonetheless, it is ultimately an academic memoir which combines (1) research on the American Self Help industry and (2) a personal life story of mental illness. The author recounts his dreadful, at times bizarre, experiences with depression, anxiety, narcissism, and obsessions/compulsions. Kablamo!
