Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Omg That's Me!
Dave Mowry · 2017
76/100
👍 Worth It
The thing that sets Mowry apart from a crowded mental health memoir shelf is the comorbidity focus — he writes about bipolar disorder and anxiety and depression together, which is how most people actually live with these conditions. The humor is earned rather than performed, and the homelessness chapter gives the book real stakes. A million blog readers before publication is strong organic proof of concept.
