F*ck Feelings

One shrink’s practical advice for managing all life’s impossible problems.

While most self-help books are about examining your feelings and fulfilling your wildest dreams, F*ck Feelings will show you how to find a new kind of freedom by getting your head out of your ass and yourself onto the right path toward realistic goals and feasible results.

F*ck Love

One shrink’s sensible advice for finding a lasting relationship.

Most relationship books promise to help you find true love. The brilliantly irreverent New York Times bestselling authors of F*ck Feelings say that’s total bullshit. Stop trying to choose a partner based on love, excitement, lust, neediness… on feelings. Instead, the authors reveal the practical, commonsense criteria for good partnerships that will allow lasting love to develop—and help you avoid the relationship nightmares that led you to this book in the first place.

F*ck PTSD

The F*ck Feelings Guide for individuals and support groups on how to manage, live with, and generally put up with the gift/curse that is PTSD

Aside from being a fun experiment, we also though our collaboration could be a nice tribute to Dr. Bennett’s mentor and the younger Bennett’s almost-uncle, the late Dr. Ted Nadelson, who was psychiatrist-in-chief at the Boston VA Medical Center.

So when we received an email via our website from a man leading a PTSD support group at the VA in Long Beach, CA, our minds were fully blown; in fact, this email remains the only one via our website that we’ve personally responded to, not because it was a threat so grave we had to get the FBI involved, but because this person, Nurse Jonas Jacoba, was writing to ask if he could use F*ck Feelings as a text for his group to use in their recovery. And that our book wasn’t just out in the world but was actually serving a purpose and acting as a perfect tribute to Ted was beyond anything we could have imagined or asked for.

While this guide was inspired by and shaped by veterans, it’s intended for anyone who lives with PTSD, whether the core trauma was caused by combat, child abuse, a random assault, etc. It is not, however, about figuring out whether you have PTSD, finding a cure, or discovering new treatments.

That’s because, as is true for most psychiatric illness, there’s no exact professional consensus on what the diagnosis means, what treatment will work best, or whether any treatment will work for a given individual. Instead, this guide will show you how to be realistic about your PTSD and stay patient and persistent while trying every reasonable treatment, seeing how much each one does or doesn’t help while learning how to live with the symptoms you’re left with.
