Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing this book in exchange for an honest review.
This isn't the best anxiety reducing book I've read but I did enjoy the author's sense of humor. This book is good for people who have more situational anxiety rather than generalized anxiety.

I am not a usual self-help book picker, but the title attracted my eye, it could relate to a phase am facing. And boy, did it work its magic! It wasn't a soothing or pitying book.
No, no. It was a fiesty book shaking you and asking you wtf is wrong with you? Pause and reflect.

Anxiety is often a personal state that no other understands, its so common that its ignored and shamed. But believe me, it needs more care than that. Asking someone to calm the fuck down without being in their shoes is like like an uncomfortable corset, pretty. Until you are in it, you don't get to feel it.

Its unexplainable but it can be controlled. It can be reflected upon and changed with the right mind and right attitude

So this book, really helped and I'd recommend anyone going through anxiety or stress to give it a read.

Thanks for this opportunity NetGalley and Sarah Knight, this journal is something that I laughed out loud while reading and while still getting some insight. Definitely worth a try!

Thank you NetGalley and Little Brown and Company for giving me this advanced readers copy.

I love how Sarah talks about anxiety in a very down to earth way. I love her straight forward approach to the ever so stressful topic. I also enjoy the questions and workbook type exercises! This book is great for anyone who wants the down and dirty truthfulness about anxiety.

This is a great way to put yourself into the book. With most self-help books it's just something you read and hope it what you read sticks long enough to help you, but with a journal you have to actually stop and try to make it work.
As someone who reads so many self-help books I often get to a point where I don't even remember what the previous one told me; a journal is a much better alternative.

I have always enjoyed Sarah Knight and this book was no exception.

Part book, part journal, Calm the F*ck Down Journal is exactly what it sounds like: a collection of stories and prompts to help you...well, calm the f*ck down. As someone with loads of anxiety, stuff like this is right up my alley and I found the prompts to be fun, fresh, amusing, and thought-provoking.

This journal would be a great workbook for someone struggling in their life right now and who also needs a few laughs, or a -great- gift for an anxious family member when you're not sure how else to help. Laughter and curse words are always a good remedy to our worries, Knight proves that here.

Thank you to Netgalley for my advanced copy of this book!

This has helped me in so many ways. This journal and the book came in to my life at the perfect time. It really helps to clear all of these what if's that take up space in your mind. I recommend this book to anyone who has anxiety.

this was a fun and entertaining collection of journal prompts. As a person with general anxiety, this made me laugh while also making me think about things in a new way.

I love this book! It is not a traditional self-help book. The way it is presented is real and gives real analogies that are relatable. There are reasons for everything and how or why it could help you. There are plenty of "is this book for you" questions that help you pinpoint how you are. It includes questions with lines to respond as well as pages for some of the questions that might have longer responses. Overall, there are so many good things about this book because it actually teaches you how to deal. For me, I already practice some of the things in the book, but there were plenty of other ideas that made it worth reading.

It is important for people to realize this is a JOURNAL. It is not the main book but a supplement to the book of Calm the F*ck Down. I am a big fan of Sarah Knight's No F*cks Given series but had yet to "read" one of her journals. This one is focused on helping with anxiety, stress, and overload. The Journal is a great tool to help those who have read Calm the F*ck Down to further work on dealing with their stress and take the actions of the book to practice. It can be used as a stand-alone but is not as effective or entertaining on its own. I found this a fun interactive journal with guided exercises, graphs, charts and great advice that is building upon the Calm the F*ck Down book.

This is the first in this series and author that I have read, but have heard from others that they love the books.
I'm not too sure it is totally suited to my and my life.
Others who made need the assistance to learn how to deal with stressors and such in their life, may find this book a perfect addition to their bookshelf. I do like the concept and it is full of information.

Give it some time to read and learn all that is offered - and calm down.

Really disappointed in this one. I read the book in its entirety on my fifteen minute break at work. I have read other books to help manage stress and anxiety. Did I fill out any of the responses? No. Maybe if I went back and completed the journal it would help me reflect on some of my worry but I don't see any helpful or new tips for people dealing with anxiety or prone to panic attacks.

I did not like this book/journal. Although I am in the minority here.

The suggestions will be useful for people who have mild anxiety or get a little stressed in the course of life but it is not the right one for people with GAD. The author mentions that she was diagnosed with GAPD as well, which made me wonder if she had even thought this through. I have GAD and under no circumstances am I going to engage with all the thoughts that come into my head. Nope, not at all. I would go crazy if I followed what the author prescribed.

The writing style didn't do anything for me either. It was grating and seemed as if the author was trying too hard to be cool.

This was a miss for me.

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley.

Fun but informative discussion of anxiety. I thought this was a fresh look at a topic that’s being discussed lots lately.

I was immediately pulled towards this book, since I am prone to overthinking everything, and I love to journal.
I do love how it combines self-help and journaling. I read it, notebook and pen next to me, and could immediately apply the things I read. Some things have been left 'empty' (or better, not applied into my own notebook) for now, but can be revisited at any time I need it.

Personally, I'd have liked more room to fill in 'what if's', or room to dump those things in order to discard them without the extra steps. Because often we do realize while freaking out that we do so over something without priority at all, and we do so anyway, right? I do realize that is probably not the goal of th 'Calm the F*ck Down Journal' though, it is to give more insight while journaling like this.

I would highly recommend the 'Calm the F*ck Down Journal', and journaling in general, to anyone who knows they are prone to overthinking a lot, or simply everything.

This is a journal that is meant to help you calm down but honestly any notebook would help you do the same thing. It’s just about jotting down your worries and then getting rid of them.

Very interesting and helpful guide regarding anxiety. The book mainly focuses on dealing with what you can and cannot control in your life. The journal gives you plenty of room to write down anything you need. I also appreciated the humor that the author brought to the book.

I loved Calm the F*ck Down more than words can express. I have go back to it many times after reading it. The major reason (beside the fact that I need to calm the F down) I keep coming back to this book is how it is written. Sarah Knight writes as if she is your friend and you are having a convo. The Journal is just the same and OMG a great addition to the other book. I literally wants to take pictures of some of the sections and send to my friends (but I didn't.... but I did tell them all they NEED this book). It is crazy how Sarah gets me and what I am dealing with. I have flag pages that have given me that Ah ha moment of clarity. This book also reaches everyone. I have my tween daughter look at some of the questions Sarah asks in this book to help deal with some of the tween girl drama.
I'm telling you this journal is a must have! I have it on my kindle and I refer back to parts a lot!

I am reading ‘Calm the F*ck Down Journal’ on World Mental Health Day.

When it comes to mental health prevention is something that we can all help with. A short conversation with another person can sometimes be enough to make the difference between life and death, and Sarah’s ‘No F*cks Given Guides’ are all conversational in nature.

Of course profanity laden prose is no substitute for professional medical advice but Sarah’s ‘Calm the F*ck Down Journal’ gives you tricks, tips and techniques to help you manage anxious feeling towards ‘Sh*t that hasn’t happened yet’ and ‘Sh*t that has already happened’.

From spending ‘F*ck Bucks’ to categorising ‘Sh*storms’ and ‘the ONE question to rule them all’, the ‘Calm the F*ck Down Journal’ is a useful guide to help manage anxious feelings enabling you to identify and tackle the things that trigger thoughts of anxiety.

As someone who has read all of Sarah Knight’s books it is a pleasure to recommend this one.

Awesome book! I have friends and family I am going to purchase this book for as gifts! Serious fun for those of us who suffer from anxiety, depression, and other life disasters that make up worry and keep us awake at night. I think the journal may well work best along with her books on the subject, but I've never really been one to look for self-help books; this one just might be the game changer! Useful info for accepting, or at least working through, issues we all have. Sarah Knight takes a serious subject and adds a little fun and humor into the mix. I love the "faces" for the tests! Sort of like the hospital pain charts! Plain, simple, no nonsense book.
