Praise for Your Journey, Your Way

There’s no other book quite like it as it takes patients, their relatives, and carers through the treacherous terrain that is the mental health landscape today, giving advice, signposting how to safely traverse the territory and giving hope at the same time

Femi Oyebode

Required reading for anyone with an interest in mental health (and that means all of us). Important, generous, painstakingly researched

Kate Kellaway

Completely brilliant. Everyone should read it

Cathy Rentzenbrink

Horatio is as wise as he is compassionate

Chris van Tulleken

A selfless, hopeful book by a writer of vast heart and quiet brilliance, which over its course creates a cartography of the 'paths to recovery' that are open to us all
