Sometimes everything sucks. This unique, illustrated guide will help you move past negative thoughts and feelings and discover what truly matters to you.
If you struggle with negative thoughts and emotions, you should know that your pain is real. No one should try to diminish it. Sometimes stuff really does suck and we have to acknowledge it. Worry, sadness, loneliness, anger, and shame are big and important, but they can also get in the way of what really matters. What if, instead of fighting your pain, you realized what really matters to you and put those things first in life? If you did that, maybe your pain wouldn t feel so big anymore. Isn t it worth a try?
Stuff That Sucks offers a compassionate and validating guide to accepting emotions, rather than struggling against them. With this book as your guide, you ll learn to prioritize your thoughts, feelings, and values. You ll figure out what you care about the most, and then start caring some more The skills you ll learn are based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Yes, there are a few written exercises, but this isn t a workbook. It s a journey into the stuff that sucks, what makes that sucky stuff suck even more, and how just a few moments each day with the stuff that matters will ultimately transform the stuff that sucks into stuff that is just stuff. Make sense?
Maybe you want to be more creative? Or maybe you simply want to do better in school or be a better friend? This book will show you how to focus on what you really care about, so that all that other sucky stuff doesn t seem so, well, sucky anymore.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Each of us has thoughts that are painful at times; sometimes the pain is sadness, sometimes worry or anger or shame or grief or some feeling that you don't even have words for.

If you are a young person struggling with your emotions, you do not want to be told that 'everyone feels like that' or that 'you will grow out of it'. You want to feel that your emotions are valid and that the person offering help truly understands how painful life can feel at times. With a strong emphasis on validation and compassion, Stuff That Sucks encourages you to accept your emotions rather than struggling against them. It also shows how to reconnect with what is really important to you, giving you the tools to help clarify your personal values and take steps towards living a life where those values can guide you in your day-to-day behaviour.

Recenzii

Stuff That Sucks easily could have been called Stuff That Works. It stands as one of the most comprehensive, persuasive, useful things I have ever read
I love Stuff That Sucks! It is a pithy, genuine, and skillful application of ACT for adolescents. As a compassion-focused therapy (CFT) practitioner, I think this book is a wonderful way to help adolescents meet the stuff that sucks in their lives with acceptance, self-compassion, and the courageous willingness to get their lives moving toward the things that matter to them.

Sometimes life sucks

Each of us has thoughts that are painful at times; sometimes the pain is sadness, sometimes worry or anger or shame or grief or some feeling that you don't even have words for. It can seem like everyone else knows what to do and say, while you feel like you don't even know how to be.

Having these types of feeling doesn't mean there is something wrong with you.

This book can help you to deal with the stuff that sucks by helping you to accept your thoughts and emotions instead of struggling against them. If you put less energy into trying to control things that are virtually impossible to fully control - the stuff you think and feel - you'll have more energy to focus on things that you can control. The stuff you do. The stuff that matters.
