A New Yorker cartoonist illustrates his lifelong struggle with OCD in cartoon vignettes frank and funny
Jason Adam Katzenstein is just trying to live his life, but he keeps getting sidetracked by his over-active, anxious brain. Mundane events like shaking hands or sharing a drink snowball into absolute catastrophes. Jason has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, a mental illness that compels him to perform rituals in order to protect himself from dangers that don't really exist. He checks, washes, over-thinks, rinse, repeat.
He does his best to hide his embarrassing compulsions, and sometimes this even works. He grows up, worries about his first kiss, falls in love with making cartoons, moves to New York City -- which is magical and gross, etc. All the while, half his energy goes into living his life, while the other half is devoted to the increasingly ridiculous rituals he's decided to maintain to keep himself from fully short-circuiting,
Then, he fully short-circuits.
At his absolute lowest, Jason finally decides to do the things he's always been told to do to get better: exposure therapy and medication. These are the things that have always freaked him out, and they continue to freak him out. Also, they help him recover.
Everything is an Emergency is a comic about all the self-destructive stories someone tells himself, over and over, until they start to seem true. In images surreal, witty, and confessional, Jason shows us that OCD can be funny, even when it feels like it's ruining your life.
With life's ups and downs, Botanical Reflections can be the prescription for you to help your days be more enjoyable. Explore feelings, reduce anxiety, and reconcile emotional conflicts when you purchase and use this book to answer a daily question, read an inspiring quote, and express your creativity.

Описание: Eliza Doolittle, Holly Golightly, Sabrina Fairchild-these character names immediately bring to mind the elfin charms of one of the most beautiful actresses stage and screen have ever seen: Audrey Hepburn, whose talent and work for UNICEF showed that she had more than beauty to offer.
Nearly two decades after her final film appearance, film star, style icon, and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn continues to captivate the world with her beauty, grace, image, and activism. She was one of the most successful and popular actress in the world, and shared the screen with the greatest leading men in Hollywood, from Gregory Peck to Cary Grant. Her beauty charmed audiences, conveying a delicate strength in all her best roles. She remains a symbol of fashion, and the "Audrey" look-hairstyles, gowns, suits-is as popular today as during her life.
She was also one of the first activist stars as the public face of UNICEF for over twenty years. Yet her life was not a complete fairy tale. She endured early life in Nazi-occupied Netherlands, and saw many children her own age shipped off to concentration camps. She suffered miscarriages and failed marriages, yet throughout maintained her grace and dignity as a public figure. This book explores her amazing life, with a special focus on her iconic films and fashion styles. Through discussions of her film and charity work, reminiscences from friends and collaborators, and photographs of her various looks over the years, this book reveals the woman and the icon.
