Description

'I have been waiting for this book my entire life. It's brilliant.' - Claudia Winkleman

'A genius book. So funny, so wise, so cool and above all so USEFUL. I couldn't love it more. I am buying it for every one of my friends.' - India Knight

'I'm absolutely fine but I slightly need to pee, I followed the road less travelled and now I don't know where the hell I am, I may bleed to death shaving my legs, my soul aches, another week has ended without me becoming accidentally rich, I just put my keys in the fridge, unexpected object in the bagging area, I'll have a cafe mocha vodka Valium latte to go please, where's my phone My anxieties have anxieties, no... not like that - here, I'll do it, do I have to do everything WTF'

Is it just me We gnaw on that, don't we Is it just me Well, look around. Look at the rage, the resolution, the 'hear me roar', the panic, the power, the chin hairs, the shame, the empathy, the conversation, the sheer potential.

Welcome to Midulthood. A place where we recognise that we are all more alike than we are unalike. Of course it's not just you. If we're not in it together, we're not in it at all...

From sex (What Could Possibly Go Wrong) to self-image (Does This Straightjacket Make Me Look Fat), I'M ABSOLUTELY FINE is a wry look at real life, real wisdom and real information framed in fun.
