In her darkly funny memoir and guide to the depressed life, comedian Jacqueline Novak doesn't offer help overcoming depression--just much-needed comfort, company, and tips for life inside the fog.

"Jacqueline Novak's unapologetic and original comedy is the kind that gives me hope in this business."--Amy Schumer

With advice that ranges from practical (Chapter 17: Do Your Crying on a Cat) to philosophical (Chapter 21: Make Peace With Sunshine), this laugh-out-loud memoir traces the depression thread from Novak's average suburban childhood to her current adult New York City existence, an imperfect but healthy-ish life in which Novak is mostly upright but still rarely does laundry.

At heart, How to Weep in Public provides a no-pressure, safe-zone for the reader to curl up inside. Keep this book on the shelf to be returned to it as needed-after all, depression is recurring. Jacqueline will be waiting to you tell you "You can fight another day." No, not as in "fight on another day" but "fight this some other day."

Whether you're coping with the occasional down day, or thriving fully in Picasso's blue period, How to Weep in Public is the perfect place to regroup during a dark stint. So sit back, relax, and let Jacqueline Novak show you how to navigate the shadowy corridors of your troubled mind or the cheese display at the supermarket when food is the only thing that can save you.
