À propos de ce contenu audio

Now being developed as a television series with Eva Longoria and ABC!

"An irresistibly addictive tour of the human condition." (Kirkus, starred review)

"Rarely have I read a book that challenged me to see myself in an entirely new light, and was at the same time laugh-out-loud funny and utterly absorbing." (Katie Couric)

"This is a daring, delightful, and transformative book." (Arianna Huffington, founder, Huffington Post and founder & CEO, Thrive Global)

"Wise, warm, smart, and funny. You must read this book." (Susan Cain, New York Times best-selling author of Quiet)

From a New York Times best-selling author, psychotherapist, and national advice columnist, a hilarious, thought-provoking, and surprising new book that takes us behind the scenes of a therapist's world - where her patients are looking for answers (and so is she).

One day, Lori Gottlieb is a therapist who helps patients in her Los Angeles practice. The next, a crisis causes her world to come crashing down. Enter Wendell, the quirky but seasoned therapist in whose of­fice she suddenly lands. With his balding head, cardigan, and khakis, he seems to have come straight from Therapist Central Casting. Yet he will turn out to be anything but.

As Gottlieb explores the inner chambers of her patients' lives - a self-absorbed Hollywood producer, a young newlywed diagnosed with a terminal illness, a senior citizen threatening to end her life on her birthday if nothing gets better, and a 20-something who can't stop hooking up with the wrong guys - she finds that the questions they are struggling with are the very ones she is now bringing to Wendell.

With startling wisdom and humor, Gottlieb invites us into her world as both clinician and patient, examining the truths and fictions we tell ourselves and others as we teeter on the tightrope between love and desire, meaning and mortality, guilt and redemption, terror and courage, hope and change.

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is revolutionary in its candor, offering a deeply personal yet universal tour of our hearts and minds and providing the rarest of gifts: a boldly revealing portrait of what it means to be human and a disarmingly funny and illuminating account of our own mysterious lives and our power to transform them.

    "Brittany Pressley performs this audiobook at a fast pace that will be familiar to listeners who live in large, bustling cities. But she knows how to moderate her energy for the tender sections, and her overall performance sounds authentic, conversational, and true to the core intentions of the author's story....Portrayed by Pressley, [the author] also sounds like someone you know, which makes her observations and insights all the more accessible."

    I really liked the book, a behind the scenes of therapy, and the narrator was great!

    Great story and narrator

    Une erreur s'est produite. Réessayez dans quelques minutes.
    I finished this book yesterday and I don’t know what to say. It deals with so many issues that I am not sure where to start. First things first, this is a memoir and not usually my kind of literature. I have read some and loved them, but I don’t usually read them.

    Anyway, I saw a youtuber talking about this book and how it made her cry, so I decided to buy it. And I don’t regret it a bit. I loved this book. Deeply. Lori tells not only her stories but the stories of her patients as well, and because she cares genuinely about her patients, it made me care for each one of them. Gosh, I saw a little bit of myself in each one of them, after all, the human experience is universal. The quest for connection, for a deeper meaning in life, for love, for fulfillment, these things are universal. Trauma is universal. In whatever way it presents itself. Fear is universal. Fear of death is universal. Regret is universal. I saw myself a lot in Charlotte. We don’t share the same story or the same personality, but we share some behaviors like auto sabotage. I found myself sharing the same feelings as Rita, even though she is 70 years old. Gosh, I loved July. I loved her family, her husband. I loved her deeply and I would have loved to have met her. I would have loved the chance to hug her. I know she didn’t need my hug; I know she was loved until the end, still, each time Lori would talk about her, all I wanted to do is to hug her deeply and to tell her that I love her. And John, with his perfect teeth and his narcissistic behavior, a way he found to deal with the pain he had gone through. And Wendell, well, he was the best, wasn’t he?

    This story is about Lori, but it’s bigger than that. It’s about the humanity within all of us. The human experience, our mortality and human connection. How we all crave for connection even though some of us don’t know how to respond to it, where to find it. Most of us don’t know how to love or how to be loved. How to let someone love us. Because we are struggling to love ourselves. We are all struggling with something. Our past, our future, our present. Our childhood, our mortality, our health, our fears, and all of these things are intertwined.

    Being alive is hard. Dealing with the overwhelming emotions and feelings tied up with our humanity is hard. And not dealing with them is harder. I wanted to make a list of quotes, but I was so immersed in the story, I didn’t even remember that.

    Life is a trip to Holland. It really is. You aren’t prepared for it. It just happens and you are forced to deal with whatever comes. But maybe you don’t have to do it alone. Maybe you should ask for help, you should cry, you should be afraid, you should be vulnerable…maybe you should talk to someone.

    This was also my first audiobook. I loved the narrator. She is amazing.

    Maybe, just maybe, YOU should talk to someone...

    So refreshing to here so much honesty. I just started seeing a therapist and this book is a support during this process. I appreciate seeing how each person evolves and moves through their emotions.

    So Human

    Fascinating, gripping, and illuminating stories exploring the human condition. We all can use therapy to understand ourselves better and help the future generations move toward a reconciliation with themselves, each other, and the world around them.

    Fantastic book
