For years, we've been telling ourselves that our difficult feelings-sadness, rage, shame, intensity, worry-are somehow "not okay." And, all too often, we've relied on the promise of pharmaceuticals to tamp them down. The fact is, though, that these feelings are a vital part of our experience. They are real. And those of us who feel them most strongly are the canaries in the coalmine-sensitive to things that are seriously wrong in the world today.
In a book that's both provocative and promising, holistic psychiatrist Kelly Brogan, M.D., author of A Mind of Your Own, shows us that we don't have to medicate our mental, emotional, and physical pain away-that the best way out is through. She explodes the mistaken belief that our symptoms-from mood changes to irritability to fogginess and fatigue-are evidence that we are sick or broken. Then she charts a new path to get real, get well, and get free. The journey includes:
• Coming to a new appreciation of the meaning behind symptoms, and whether you are a canary in the coal mine
• Learning the 2 major risks of medication that most doctors are not trained to disclose
• Exploring the 5 reversible physical drivers of so-called mental illness
• Starting the process of radical physical healing with inclusive details of Dr. Brogan's history-making 30-day protocol
• Taking an emotional inventory of energy drains and toxic relationships
• Taking a deeper dive into the spiritual awakening and expansion that comes when you reclaim your real self from conventional medicine
• Identifying the most likely places you have given your power away
• Understanding what the science has to say about psychedelics as a tool for awakening
• Navigating health challenges with curiosity and the proper tools
• Guidance, support, and many Travel Tips shared from the trenches!
Our experiences, Dr. Brogan argues, aren't problems or pathologies; they reflect what we need to accept, acknowledge, and transform in order to truly become who we are. Own Your Self is a journey of healing, and also something more: a journey of coming home to ourselves.

It’s time to get real, get well, and get free!
In Own Your Self, explore the surprising path to living a med-free life through a deep appreciation of the meaning behind your symptoms. Our experiences reflect what we need to accept, acknowledge, and transform in order to truly become our adult selves. Only when we embrace our experiences can we begin to live a healthful, natural life without relying on substances and a mindset that rob us of our true power. All it takes is a commitment to curiosity, and we hope that this book will inspire this life-changing shift.
Kelly Brogan's most urgent message is about the commitment you must make in order to benefit from the lessons in this book. That commitment is this: put your self-care first, and do that every day. From that space, everything gets clear, and you find yourself the protagonist in the adventure of your most beautiful life.

If you’re not interested in this book then don’t buy it, it’s not for you. But if there is even the smallest kernel of interest piqued inside you by this - by the idea that if you’re sick you’re not actually broken, that there’s much to learn from any ‘symptoms’, and that what we know as ‘mental illness’ can, in fact, bring you to the light, and away from the darkness, then I urge you to buy this book and read it. There is much wisdom in these pages, coming from someone who was once prescribing the very medicines she now fascilitates people to leave behind.
But the lessons in this book aren’t just for those of us who have experienced mental health issues. This is about becoming the adult we’ve been looking for outside of ourselves for our whole lives. And there are rich rewards for us along the way, in terms of self-knowledge, self-love, joy and contentedness, and the ripple effect our more complete selves will inevitably have on those around us. Loved this book, and I know I’ll refer to it often.
Even though I was already through all that this book was still wonderful and helped me with finding a better mindset and ways to heal. This book set off a wonderful chain reaction with me. Now I'm eating healthier, losing weight, enjoying my life more, and trying new things like reiki and ecstatic dance. I'm also feeling the best I have in years.
If you're struggling with mental health problems you should definitely try this book. The power to heal is in your hands, you just have to realize it and that's really what this book is about.
