About

The therapy continues. In this sequel to the international bestselling memoir, Baek Sehee returns to her psychiatrist's office — not because the first round of sessions failed, but because healing from chronic, low-grade depression isn't a project with an end date. It's an ongoing negotiation with yourself, conducted one conversation at a time. Baek's follow-up carries the same radical honesty that made the original a phenomenon: the willingness to sit in discomfort without rushing toward a resolution, and to document the messy middle of mental health treatment where progress is real but invisible. The therapy transcripts remain the book's structural genius — raw, unedited exchanges that feel more honest than polished memoir ever could. A book about what comes after you start getting better — the unglamorous, essential work of staying in the room.
