| Summary |
"When You Don't Know Where to Turn" by Steven J. Bartlett is a self-help guide written in the late 20th century. This work serves as a self-diagnosing guide for individuals seeking counseling and therapy, addressing the myriad of psychological challenges faced by many in contemporary society. It essentially aims to empower readers to navigate the complex landscape of mental health treatment by helping them identify their specific needs and the type of therapeutic approaches that may suit them best. At the start of the book, the author shares an illustrative story about a character named Frank, who struggles with severe depression despite having what appears to be a successful life. Through Frank's journey of seeking help, which involves multiple therapists and self-reflection, Bartlett sets the stage to discuss the broader themes of mental health, the stigma associated with seeking help, and the importance of personalized treatment. The opening portion emphasizes the confusion surrounding therapy options and the necessity for individuals to take charge of their mental health journey, making informed choices about the support they require.
