Omschrijving

“I laugh-cried all the way though this biting critique of self-help bullshit and manipulative power structures. Dooner has written something deeply of the moment and relatable as f*ck.”—Amanda Montell, author of Cultish and NYT Bestselling The Age of Magical Overthinking

Blending memoir and blistering social observations, the author of The F*ck It Diet looks back at her desperate attempts to heal her hunger, anxiety, and imperfections through extreme diets, culty self-help methods, and melodramatic bargains with the universe. 

Offering a frank and funny critique of the cultural forces that are driving us mad, Caroline Dooner examines how treating ourselves like never ending self-improvement projects is a recipe for burnout. We have become unknowingly complicit in perpetuating our own exhaustion because we are treating ourselves like machines. But even phones need to f*cking recharge.

Caroline takes a good hard look at the dark side of self-help, and explains how she eventually used a radical period of rest to push back against cultural expectations and reclaim some peace.

Tired As F*ck empowers us to say no to the things that exhaust us. It inspires us to carve out time to slow down, feel okay about doing less, and honor our humanity. 

This is not a self-help book, it’s a cautionary tale. It’s an honest look at the dogma of wellness and spiritual self-improvement culture and revels in the healing power of rest and letting shit go.


Tired As F*ck is your permission slip to push back against the madness:


Anti-Self-Help Honesty: A frank and funny takedown of the culty, manipulative forces that turn our lives into never-ending improvement projects. The Power of Radical Rest: How a deliberate period of doing less can be the ultimate antidote to exhaustion and the key to letting shit go. Unpacking Anxiety and Burnout: An unflinching look at how the pressure to be perfect leads to chronic stress, deep exhaustion, and desperate, melodramatic bargains with the universe. A Relatable Memoir, Not a Rulebook: This is not another list of things you should be doing. It’s a hilarious and honest story about the author’s own journey through extreme diets and self-help hell.
