Dr Kelly Brogan, New York Times bestselling author and holistic psychiatrist, proposes an alternative to medicating mental, emotional and physical pain away.

'[Will] change how you approach your health and mental wellbeing.' Sarah Gottfried, author of The Hormone Cure.

For years, we've been telling ourselves that our difficult feelings - sadness, rage, shame, intensity, worry - are somehow 'not okay'. All too often, we've relied on the promise of pharmaceuticals to tamp them down. The fact is 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 coal mine - sensitive to things that are seriously wrong in the world today.

In a book that's both provocative and promising, holistic psychiatrist Kelly Brogan MD shows us that we don't have to medicate our mental, emotional and physical pain away - that the best way out is through. 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
• Exploring the 5 reversible physical drivers of so-called mental illness
• Starting a process of radical physical healing with inclusive details of Dr Brogan's history-making 30-day protocol
• Taking a deeper dive into the spiritual awakening and expansion that comes when you reclaim your real self from conventional medicine

Jane had a pretty good life. She was a single mother, and she worked hard for her three kids, who meant the world to her. One autumn evening she met someone she believed to be the man of her dreams-the only thing missing in her nearly perfect life. He was handsome, gentle, quiet, and kind.

Eleven months later, they bought a home and were married. Jane was so happy. Soon, however, her daughter, Michelle, began to change; she became distant and withdrawn. Something was wrong, but Jane couldn't figure out what it was. She never thought to look at her husband as being the cause her daughter's moodiness or imagine that it might be somehow related to sexual abuse. Her husband-a young, handsome man with a nine-to-five job, an ex-wife and kids of his own-was nothing like her image of a pedophile.

In her memoir, "I Am Gonna Tell," Jane recounts the nightmare that she, her daughter and sons lived through due to the man Jane brought into their lives. This is a mother's brutally honest account of the horrifying discovery of her daughter's sexual abuse at the hands of her husband-her daughter's stepfather.
