"Get ready to laugh at your neuroses—and feel seen, too (Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author) in this “deeply felt and surprisingly funny book" (Roz Chast, #1 New York Times bestselling author), by award-winning popular cartoonist, writer, and illustrator, Gemma Correll, chronicling her lifelong experience with anxiety and depression.

WELCOME TO ANXIETYLAND—“Gemma Correll perfectly captures the hunted animal feeling of being a depressed, anxious babe in a way that is so vulnerable and funny and good” (Samantha Irby, New York Times bestselling author).

In 2018, Gemma Correll had a panic attack that lasted for weeks on end. Unable to do much more than walk aimlessly through the streets of Berkeley, Correll admitted herself to the hospital to reckon with The Bad Feeling that had been her companion since she was a child.

With her ingenious and charming illustrations “bursting with personality...peppered with witty asides” (Publishers Weekly), Correll leads readers through the amusement park in her own mind—featuring severe anxiety, depression, agoraphobia, and dissociation—a frightening and darkly funny world that “feels like a place apart from ‘real’ life.”

A hilarious thrill ride exploring the mysteries of the mind-body connection, Gemma Correll’s graphic memoir is shot through with the absurd knowledge that there is no linear way through Anxietyland, nor any cure-alls—but there are ways to feel better if you keep trying to move forward.

"Shute’s empathetic narration proves she’s just the right fit for this audiobook." Kirkus
"Shakira Shute brilliantly performs cartoonist Correll’s often all-encompassing anxiety in this graphic memoir. Listeners are presented with the hypervigilant thoughts that consume Correll in a way that’s both humorous and relatable. In a British accent, Shute effectively channels the author’s signature wit as well as her deeply personal struggles, helping listeners to understand Correll’s panic disorder. Even as it’s an honest look at what it’s like to have severe anxiety coupled with depression, Anxietyland is an entertaining, playful, and inviting listen that offers comfort to anyone familiar with an anxious internal world."
