About us
Comedy writer and journalist Ariane Sherine created and organised the Atheist Bus Campaign, persuading Richard Dawkins and the British Humanist Association to support her – and buses with variations on the slogan "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life" ran in 13 countries across the globe.As a result, Ariane received an Inbox full of hate mail, which eventually led to a major nervous breakdown and suicidal ideation. She ended her journalistic career, and didn't write again for over three years.
In this talk, hosted by Plymouth Humanists, she will tell the full story of how therapy and medication saved her life, prompting her to write her new book, Talk Yourself Better: A Confused Person's Guide to Therapy, Counselling and Self-Help.
Ariane will also be signing copies of Talk Yourself Better after the talk - it will be available for £10 a copy, a substantial discount over the retail price. Payment by cash or card accepted.
This event is free and all are welcome, although a voluntary contribution to help cover speakers' costs is appreciated.
