You Will Get Through This Night

The Instant New York Times Bestseller

A practical guide to taking control of your mental health for today, tomorrow, and the days after, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author and beloved entertainer. 

‘There's a moment at the end of every day, where the world falls away and you are left alone with your thoughts. A reckoning, when the things you have been pushing to the background, come forward and demand your attention.'

Written by Daniel Howell, in consultation with a qualified psychologist, in an entertaining and personal way from the perspective of someone who has been through it all-this no-nonsense book gives you the tools to understand your mind so you can be in control and really live. Split into three chapters for each stage of the journey:

This Night - how to get through your toughest moments and be prepared to face anything.

Tomorrow - small steps to change your thoughts and actions with a big impact on your life.

The Days After - help to look after yourself in the long term and not just survive, but thrive.

You will laugh and learn-but most of all, this book will assure you that even in your darkest times, there is always hope. 

You will get through this night.

Editorial Reviews

Bold, raw, and powerful, Howell's book-which also draws from his own experiences-becomes one thread of a narrative about finding hope and healing. It doesn't ever feel too positive, simplistic, reductive, or one-dimensional. Like his previous books, this one will find a wide audience. -- Library Journal (starred review)

Howell's stories often feel like the warm hug of a familiar friend who understands that bettering one's mental health is a marathon, not a sprint. And regardless of whether you've been watching his content online for years like me, or if you've never even heard of Howell before reading this review, You Will Get Through This Night offers up something for anyone who might be looking to do a bit of self-reflecting on how they can better their minds. -- Hypable

I have always loved Dan and when I saw he was writing a book, I immediately preordered. This book is truly one of the best I’ve read. It’s non pretentious, it’s funny and it’s accessible. It feels less like a book and more like a friend offering some advice. Would highly recommend!

So happy to see Dan’s journey throughout the years. I can’t wait to dive into his first book and I look forward to whatever the next adventure is. Great read for anyone dealing with mental health issues or loves someone that does.

one of the most important reasons i love this book is one that i just consciously became aware of earlier today - how important it is to hear about mental health from someone who has also openly struggled with mental health issues. it made me feel seen in a way i rarely, if ever, do in mental health spaces. there were some exercises included that, as someone who has seen many, many mental health professionals throughout my life, were not new to me. but these became fresh in this context - as a toolbox to come back to and grab as needed. often, in my experience, therapy feels like a compartmentalization - it’s an hour set aside to address your problems and concerns, and then you move on with your life. but then while reading this book, it really helped me de-compartmentalize - realizing how intrinsically linked each and every moment of the day is to your mental health and well-being... and that there’s no time or place you specifically need to be in to practice a lot of the tips, tricks, and techniques outlined. i’ve said it a few times this week, and i’m going to reiterate it here - i genuinely have found this book more helpful than some of the counseling i’ve had in the past. and i’m really excited to tell everyone about it, and i’m hoping that others find it as useful as i have!
