and you might be thinking "oh that sounds like a children's book" Well it is not, it is actually not even considered a young adult read in bookstores, though it does follow a freshman boy's life. However, I cannot stress enough the helpfulness and validation to your feelings that this book gives. It is a quick read!

Love Perks. I love it and the movie. And very helpful, that was how I found out that what was going in my head wasn't normal (read it as a freshman in high school. Didn't get help until 4years later).
