Description: ‘ Probably the best book on living with anxiety that I've ever read.’ - Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. Journalist, blogger and I Quit Sugar author Sarah Wilson has lived through high anxiety - including bipolar, OCD and several suicide attempts - her whole life. Tired of the perception of anxiety as a disease that must be medicated into submission, Wilson embarked on a seven-year journey to find a more meaningful and helpful take on anxiety. First, We Make the Beast Beautiful is the result of that quest, brimming with the most potent philosophy, science and hacks for thriving with, and understanding, the beast. Sarah Wilson scored an inspirational hit with her polemic for better-living I Quit Sugar. First, We Make the Beast Beautiful courageously takes on issues that have long-haunted Wilson’s life, offering a pragmatic and informal route through anxiety.

Review: This was an insightful and moving account about anxiety from a woman whose mental health she has to fight for every single day. I'm in awe of Sarah Wilson and her life-affirming journey and honest portrayal of what it is like to have a panoply of illnesses to deal with. The author points out that her book does not provide solutions nor clear remedies for anxiety - however - through her open minded and passionate account of her search for one, she has opened my eyes to what it is like to be brave as well as make use of whatever tools there are to make the most of life despite the fact that her anxiety will always be there - a beast made beautiful thanks to her courage and determination.

Review: I was looking forward to reading this book, which i saw on a recommendation article. However, it is not as motivational as i thought it would be. I am a bit disappointed so far. Have not read the whole book, but I think my expectations were slightly different to the reality. I will read the book to the end and see if I feel differently
