Im Fine...and Other Lies

Posted on 21 August 2017 by Whitney Cummings

Well, well, well Look at you, ogling my book page I presume if you re reading this it means you either need encouragement to buy it, you re very bored in an airport, or we used to date and you re trying to figure out if you should sue me or not.Here are all the stories and mistakes I ve made that were way too embarrassing to tell on stage in front of an actual audience but thanks to not so modern technology, you can read about them here so I don t have to risk having your judgmental eye contact crush my self esteem This book contains some delicious schadenfreude in which I recall such humiliating debacles as breaking my shoulder while trying to impress a guy, coming very close to spending my life in a Guatemalan prison, and having my lacerated ear sewn back on by a deaf guy after losing it in a torrid love affair In addition to hoarding mortifying situations that ll make you feel way better about your choices, I ve also accumulated a lot of knowledge from therapists, psychotherapists, and psychopaths, which can probably help you avoid making the same mistakes I ve made Think of this book as everything you d want from the Internet all in one place, except without the constant distractions of ads, online shopping, and porn.I m not sure what else to say to say, except that you should buy it if you want to laugh and learn how to stop being crazy If you re bored at an airport, I m sorry and welcome to most days of my life on the road And if we used to date, see you in court.

am impressed by Whitney Cummings She is brazen about sharing the very fraught and painful experiences from her life This was not a book about comedy or the entertainment industry or onset antics from her acting career Whitney boldly shares some very personal, deeply arresting heartbreaking stories about her journey to find herself I was quite disturbed by much she suffered and in the end, very appreciative of her courage and intention to share that nothing and no one is perfect She clea I am impressed by Whitney Cummings She is brazen about sharing the very fraught and painful experiences

through in the end.Parts of it were amusing but it was mostly about her problems and I didn t sign up for that I have my own problems.It was very illuminating to watch Whitney Cummings discover herself how she thinks, why she thinks that way, why she makes the choices she makes There are so many neuroses discussed in this book that one is bound to see oneself somewhere That being said, the excess of disorders that Cummings is diagnosed with an eating disorder, a love addiction, codependency, etc make me wonder if there exists even one person on this planet that couldn t be diagnosed with some kind of personality disor It was very illuminating to watch Whitney Cummings discover herself how she thinks, why she thinks that way, why she makes the choices she makes There are so many

etc make me wonder if there exists even one person on this planet that couldn t be diagnosed with some kind of personality disorder It s just worrisome to think of people wandering around, hyperaware of all of their disorders, explaining ad nauseam how they are different because this is how they think versus how others think, blah, blah, blah There is undoubtedly a benefit in self consideration and introspection but only to a degree If your life is seriously messed up, self ...Hilarious as it is heartbreaking, but ultimately optimistic Whitney Cummings shares the issues she s overcome in great detail and perfected wit A great relatable read or listen, since I grabbed the audiobook that reminds us we are all humans dealing with our assorted anxieties Good stuff4.5 StarsI loved this book It was equal parts humorous, emotional, informative, and relatable The only reason I didn t give this a 5 5 rating was because I felt the last couple of chapters dragged on a bit too long and became a little repetitive However I found the vast majority of the book to be excellent and I can and will recommend it without hesitation I expected it to be funny, but I had no idea how raw and genuine it would be I am glad I listened to the audiobook because the 4.5 StarsI loved this book It was equal parts humorous, emotional, informative, and relatable The only reason I didn t give this a

relate able topics, a lot of which were similar to things I ve experienced It s always nice in a bittersweet...4.5 starsIt is really interesting to me how many insecurities are lurking behind the most confident people This was a fab autobiography and I appreciate Whitney s candour when discussing her relationships, her body struggles and her viewpoint of the world A bigger fan of her now because of this.I loved the show Whitney, finding Cummings to be hilarious When I found out she was also a co creator of 2 Broke Girls, I knew I liked her I was really excited when I heard she was coming out with a book I was hoping to laugh like I did while reading Jenny Lawson s Furiously Happy The first chapter had me laughing and my hopes were high Unfortunately, the majority of the book felt like background noise to me I enjoyed the nuggets of psychology knowledge For instance, I found myself relati I loved the show Whitney, finding Cummings to be hilarious When I found out she was also a co
