About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
After coming terrifyingly close to suicide, Jake Tyler was determined to take back control of his life from the clutches of depression.
With only a pair of walking boots and a backpack, he left his home town of Maldon and began a 3,000-mile walk around the British mainland. In documenting every step of his adventure, Jake shares the ways in which his road to recovery was enhanced by the kindness of strangers, who helped him to better understand himself and the power of human connection.
This is both the story of Jake's lap of the UK and also of his journey to finding peace within himself and with the world around him.

An absolute must read
Exceptionally inspiring, brutally honest, thought provoking and at times, even laugh out loud funny. The one thing that really stuck in my mind was how he talks about mental health and depression as being an ongoing battle - not something you can just 'cure'. so finding the things that help you to deal and manage with it each day is what will get us through. Thank you for doing what you did Jake and having the courage and skill to share how you have. You're a brilliant human and make this world a much better place

A must listen
I’ve listened to many audio books and must say this was one of if not my favourite so far. Jake’s emotion came through you could tell when he was smiling and enjoying telling a particular story. Great book with some amazing achievements. Loved it.

Incredible Journey
what a fascinating book.
I found myself relistening to sections over and over again, some of the messages were so strong and so positive, they needed to be reinforced.
Poor mental health is a wolf at everyone's door. But Jake helps us peek through the door's peep hole and take evasive actions to keep it at bay.
And when, on occasions, you open that door and let it in, you learn how to accept it for what it is and deal with it.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is touched by mental health issues. It's a rollercoaster, so hold on tight.
Jake, thank you for sharing your story. I hope it helps others understand as it helped me

Refreshingly honest
I heard Jake on the Zoe Ball breakfast show and immediately downloaded the book.
I was hooked from the first chapter, perhaps it was the added openness of hearing it directly from Jake that added to the authenticity of this book but I found myself listening at every opportunity.
Jake’s story/journey/account is one that opens your eyes, your heart and your mind!
