Fresh out of college, Cosette Haugen lands herself in an adult psychiatric ward. Faced with the grim reality of modern inpatient wards, she struggles to maintain sanity in a place where conditions are, according to one patient, worse than prison. During her stay, she meets women engaged with their own battles—with themselves, their circumstances and the hospital system. Together they endure everything from booty shots and bewilderment to boredom and bingo. This is a story told with uncensored detail that will have you aching, seething and laughing alongside the women of the 15th floor ward. From initial intake to final discharge, and with generous doses of wit, Cosette provides a lucid view into the shortcomings of mental healthcare in America and invites readers to challenge their assumptions about depression and anxiety. Between the wild antics, you will find vulnerable reflections, lessons in empathy and perhaps the words to help you break the ice with your loved ones.

Trevor Kraus has snuck into the Super Bowl, World Series, Wimbledon, and more than 20 other major sporting events. Ticketless shows the world how he did it.While UrbanDaddy calls Kraus "the best spin-mover there ever was," this tell-all memoir is about far more than forging tickets and dodging security guards.Kraus calls himself an "insecure, over-analytical virgin ... with a dad who died cold and alone," and spares no detail in describing his struggles through young adulthood. Readers say Ticketless will make you "uncomfortable with emotional rawness ... and yet hopeful to the point of tears."

98% of self-published books suck. But among the 2% are The Martian, 50 Shades of Grey, and - wait for it - A Christmas Carol.When Matt Rudnitsky's first self-published book earned $14,000 in profits and an offer from Simon & Schuster ... he was shocked. But Matt quickly realized "getting published" is a glorified scam, and you can reach the same audience (and earn ~5x the profits) by self-publishing.If you know what you're doing, that is.Matt insists that anyone can equal or surpass his success (and self-publish a true "classic") ... if they follow the steps in this book.This isn't your ordinary "book about writing books." It's real, no-BS advice from someone who's done it - and has learned from the dozens of successes and failures of himself and his clients - from self-help to memoir to business, and everything in between. It demystifies every single step of the book writing process, from ideation to validation to outlining to writing habits, publishing and marketing.

Finally Waking Up: Living your Best Life Now! Getting Sober, Healthy and Losing Weight

Epifanio, John

Are there any rules stating that because the person you loved so deeply has died that you can never again be happy? Is there some clause in the Constitution of Life that states that you will or should forever carry the burden of sadness? I don't think so. What if you can find joy buried in your grief? What if you can wake up in the morning and be glad to have another day to enjoy? I did. Maybe you can, too.This is how I found a path that let me walk from grief to joy. A path that was sometimes circular, often strewn with rocks and boulders, frequently uphill, but a path that led to a life without misery. A life of joy.
