I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki: The cult hit everyone is talking about

Product Information

Se-hee is blunt yet charming, I couldn't help but respect her throughout this book. The best parts of the text are her essays, which come at the beginning of each chapter, and at the end of the book.

I also got new information for myself. That the author's treatment lasted for more than a year. Previously, I thought that the consultation conducted by the author with a psychiatrist doctor was about a few months or Every time I read this book - including the first book - I have mixed feelings. I also seem to understand what the author feels. Because I myself also felt and was in a situation like that too. The internationally bestselling therapy memoir translated by International Booker Prize shortlisted Anton Hur.Se Hee juga mengingatkan bahwa kita harus sadar bahwa setiap orang memiliki kondisi yang berbeda. Apa yang kita kira ucapan biasa, bisa jadi adalah kalimat yang memicu perasaan depresi bagi seseorang. Ia juga mencoba mengingatkan bahwa masa lalu atau sekarang, kita adalah kita. Membenci masalalu bukan berarti kamu akan terhindar dari ingatan itu.

Baek führt von außen betrachtet ein normales Leben: Sie hat einen Job in einem Verlag, der ihr Spaß macht, Freunde und eine Partnerschaft, die sie sehr erfüllt. Ihre Gefühle kann sie gegenüber jeder Person gut verbergen und strahlt eine Gelassenheit und Leichtigkeit aus. In ihrem Inneren ist Baek ängstlich, verzweifelt und niedergeschlagen und begibt sich daher in eine Therapie, denn es kostet sie viel Kraft diese Fassade aufrechtzuerhalten.

Hanya ada satu 'aku' di dunia. Dengan begitu aku adalah sesuatu yang amat spesial. Diriku adalah sesuatu yang harus kujaga selamanya. Diriku adalah sesuatu yang harus kubantu secara perlahan, kutuntun selangkah demi selangkah dengan penuh kasih sayang dan kehangatan. Diriku adalah sesuatu yang butuh istirahat sesaat sambil menarik napas panjang atau terkadang butuh cambukan agar bisa bergerak ke depan. Aku percaya aku akan menjadi semakin bahagia jika aku semakin sering melihat ke dalam diriku sendiri.” (h. 111) Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of I WANT TO DIE BUT I WANT TO EAT TTEOKPOKKI by Baek Se-hee, a memoir/self-help book. I finished reading this book tonight, and while it wasn't what I expected, there were things about it that I enjoyed.

Baek and I are clearly very different people with very different views. And I suppose I’m just the wrong reader for the book. I was defeated by my own high-ass expectations, and only have myself to blame. If you like Baek's book more than Kane's play, that's actually super good news for you. Buatku pribadi, buku "sulit" dituntaskan. Bukan karena nggak bagus, tapi sesi tanya-jawab penulis dan psikiater ini bikin perasaan nggak nyaman. Esai yang ditulis penulis ini mungkin sebenarnya dekat banget sama keseharian aku pribadi. Dan perasaan penulis yang dituangkan dalam buku ini mungkin merupakan pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang selalu ada di benakku. This is a book full of very honest and interesting reflections. Author Baek Sehee shares personal transcriptions of her therapy sessions as she grapples with her journey through anxiety and depression, and sprinkles in essays that reflect on these sessions and moments in her life. Korean author Baek-Sehee has her whole life ahead of her. She works as a successful young social media director at a publishing house where her boss seems to genuinely care about her. Yet, despite her loving friends and doting family, she finds herself at a loss. She feels depressed, constantly running low, feeling anxious, and self-conscious. On the outside, she cultivates a perfect porcelain mask for her loved ones, who are not at all aware of the agony she endures. To find answers, she decides to consult a psychiatrist. What’s wrong with her? Such turmoil can’t be normal, right? Sebagai seorang yang pernah menjalani sesi konseling, sungguh aku mengerti bahwa proses penyembuhan gangguan mental tidak semudah yang dibayangkan. Pasti ada naik-turunnya. Pasti ada masa-masa ingin menyerah. Dan, proses tiap orang tidaklah sama. Ada yang bisa menyelesaikan masalahnya dengan mudah dan cepat, ada yang membutuhkan waktu yang lebih lama.I don't read a lot of self-help books–I can't remember any apart from Loveability by Robert Holden, but I didn't even finish reading the book completely–so I was quite unsure what to expect from reading this. I had wanted to love this book, and that is exactly how it ended to be—and perhaps I love it more than I had hoped.

America is far past this surface-leveled interest of wellness since our Woody Allen women who all went to shrinks and even our YoutubeBetterHelpsponsoredGetYour10%Off! ads and the overall millenial movement of Canva-concocted pastel infographs that parrot pretty nothings. she got offended when a friend didn't seem to enjoy a book she recommended, and sent a scathing message to said friend, calling her "arrogant and exhausting"The book is a write up of Baek’s time in therapy discussing this, as well as how she tends to use food for comfort. Usually the psychologist in me means that I have issues over confidentially, but as this is specifically Baek’s own stuff, I think I’m okay. P.S. I was wondering why this book was so hyped until I did some Nancy Drewing and realized that someone from BTS apparently endorsed this book so I guess it's true what they say: The boy bands will inherit the earth. Honestly, I bought and read this book because of the recommendation from BTS .. :)) and, besides that, because the title is unique !!!.... Alas, the book has a major problem: It is unbelievably boring. The educational impulse is overwhelming, protagonist Baek remains a chiffre, and the (highly professional) dynamic between her and her therapist doesn't allow for enough immersion. Also, you would expect more complexity from a novel that focuses on the guidance of a mental health professional - but then again, I suppose the author wanted to connect to younger people who are afraid to reach out for help, and for this demographic, this highly accessible approach might be justified.
