Matt Haig
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library.
“A very special book that has provided a beam of hope to so many.”—DOLLY ALDERTON
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FEEL TRULY ALIVE?
Aged 24, Matt Haig's world caved in. He could see no way to go on living. This is the true story of how he came through crisis, triumphed over an illness that almost destroyed him, and learned to live again.
It has helped millions of people do the same. Moving, funny, and even joyous, these are the lessons Matt learned. His reasons to stay alive.
"I wrote this book because the oldest clichés remain the truest. Time heals. The bottom of the valley never provides the clearest view. The tunnel does have light at the end of it, even if we haven't been able to see it . . . Words, just sometimes, really can set you free."

I need to mention the beautiful calmness, and confidence he speaks in as he takes the time to address loved ones so many are hurting from their own nightmare of fears. For so many desperate searching anything possible as they to do anything they can for loved ones who need this support! He takes so much precious time writing as much complete , and open education and answers for those family and friends that he knows are also feeling helpless about their loved ones!
I read this so often now- because it Absolutely gives us all the reasons to live.
(Note: the more of us that share these stories with others, the closer we begin to understand what ever actually happens within our minds to make this vital information and research a non- negotiable! We must follow Matt Haig’s lead!! Thank you Mr. Haig - for more than I could ever put into words- you spoke to the unique individual perspective that I have been unable to explain to doctors, therapists, self-help books…. And so many other attempts I’ve sought to Just cry out “Help Me”!
Specifically, he has forever given me a new hope of incredible perspectives and I wish I could tell him “Thank you” in person🙏
I will be eternally grateful for your ability to reach me WHERE I NEEDED TO BE FOUND!-
