Book Hero thinking about your next read

A journal that can serve as your own (and significantly less expensive) therapist, Cheaper than Therapy is filled with questions straight out of a therapist's head!

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

We all know that therapy is just an expensive way to dump out all the feelings and stories that are too embarrassing to share with the people in your life. Now, in Cheaper Than Therapy, you can journal about your childhood, your recurring dreams, and what your relationship was like with your parents.

Filled with 120 tongue-in-cheek prompts, thought-provoking quotes from the likes of Carl Jung, Rorschach inkblot tests, dream analysis, and word association tests straight out of a therapist's head, Cheaper Than Therapy offers the best of therapy, with none of the pointed looks and the not-so-therapeutic, "What do you think that means?" and "Let's explore that further."

Who needs a therapist when you have this brilliant (and much cheaper) journal?
