The oh-so-witty hilarious Jenny "The Bloggess" Lawson is back with a new memoir titled How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay. This book reveals her contradictions. She is a bestselling author full of self-doubt. She is hysterically funny but struggles with depression. And through it all, she keeps going. Even better, she shares how in How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay: Tips and Tricks That Kept Me Alive, Happy, and Creative in Spite of Myself.
It's the informational book I didn't know I needed. The advice I longed for. The validation that I am not the only anxious one. A reference for when I'm feeling stuck. Even though I read it entirely with tons of highlights and annotations, I will assuredly revisit How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay as needed. Having been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder, I am cognizant of stress. Jenny Lawson shares tools that are sure to help avoid and address anxiety, depression and chronic illness.

This new book is like an ongoing conversation with Jenny Lawson. The kind where a friend calls on the phone and says, "Girl, guess what happened today..." then proceeds to tell the most funniest story. The more I laugh, the more I think about how relatable it is, then we cackle and find the lesson within. You know, to be prepared for next time. I appreciate her honesty, raw storytelling and thought process during situations. A great resource! Now excuse me while I add to, and search the #yepthisisme hashtag.
Happy Pub Day to Jenny Lawson! How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay is officially on shelves!
