不安

The chapter on why our minds are wired for worry hit me harder than I expected. I finished it in two sittings, and the bit about self-compassion actually gave me something to practice instead of just theory.

I’ve never underlined so much in a book before—the section about how we’re all secretly anxious felt like it was written for me. It doesn’t just explain the worry; it actually gives you small, practical steps toward self-compassion that I’ve been using daily. My only regret is not buying it sooner.

The chapter on self-compassion alone was worth the price—it reframed how I talk to myself during late-night spirals. It reads like a conversation rather than a lecture, which made the practical steps feel doable instead of overwhelming. I've already lent it to two friends.
