I’m Fine — But Don’t Believe Me
For Women Who Are Falling Apart Behind the Mask of “I’m FineBy Diletta Armstrong
Length1h 32m
About this audiobook
“How are you?” — “I’m fine.”
You say it without thinking. Everyone believes you. Sometimes, even you do.
I’m Fine — But Don’t Believe Me is for the women who seem to have everything under control while quietly running on empty. Through intimate, relatable stories and accessible psychology, it explores what happens when “I’m fine” becomes a habit—and how much lighter life can feel when you finally stop saying it.
Inside, you’ll discover how to:
Recognize what you're really feeling beneath “fine”
Understand why we hide our struggles, even from people who love us
Stop carrying everything alone and become more honest about what you need
Have conversations that create real closeness instead of polite distance
Try seven simple experiments that can change how you relate to yourself and othersWarm, witty, honest, and deeply relatable, this book is a companion for anyone who has ever been called “the strong one,” “the easy one,” or “low maintenance.”
Maybe you aren't broken. Maybe you're exhausted from pretending you aren't.
