Everything Begins with Asking for Help is real, honest, open, vulnerable, authentic, engaging, compelling, and helpful. It’s well-written and easy to read. Once I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down and finished it in two days.
Kevin shares his personal story and allows us into his life. He doesn’t hold back, which encourages us to be honest with ourselves.
I know and love people with anxiety and depression, and Kevin Braddock’s humour and practical suggestions helped me understand what they are going through.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves and wants to support someone struggling with depression and anxiety.
Thank you for writing this book, Kevin, and for sharing this part of yourself with us!

From the Publisher
Looking for a mental health manual for the modern age? Then this is the perfect book for you.
Everything Begins with Asking for Help is a frank, insightful and thought-provoking book on mental health, drawing on the author's own experience of a severe mental breakdown and sharing the recovery tools he has developed in partnership with various medical professionals and mental health experts.
Kevin shares his own story to give the book a vital human element, explaining how his fast-paced life in Berlin was brought to a sudden halt by a major depressive episode. In this dark time, Kevin reached out to friends for help, and it was that act - asking for help - that set him on the long road to recovery.
Building on this narrative, Kevin leads the reader through the stages of asking for help, learning to listen, the physical, emotional and mental elements of recovery, and how to maintain stable mental health at home and at work. Written with warmth, honesty and compassion, this is is a valuable resource for anyone who needs help and doesn't know where to begin.
