About WHY THINGS FEEL F*CKED:
The Truth About Why You Feel Stuck
About WHY THINGS FEEL F*CKED: The Truth About Why You Feel Stuck
The world is incredibly complex, chaotic, and fast-changing, leaving us feeling like we have our foot on the accelerator and brake at the same time.
From politics to workplaces to relationship dynamics, WHY THINGS FEEL F*CKED reveals how the modern world has hijacked our nervous systems for disconnection instead of the human connection we desperately crave.
This practical roadmap unlocks our capacity for nervous system regulation, and self-leadership. This book will help you find clarity and a renewed sense that a better life is possible, one small change at a time.
Caught in the machine: Unravel the systems that keep us stuck
Note from the Author: Andrew Sloan
The first 20 years of my life harmed me greatly. The last 20 years have healed me.
I wrote this book because I believe your healing is possible.
Much of the content and some of the client stories in this book draws from my decade of private practice as an Integrated Psychotherapist and Leadership Coach in Gadigal, Sydney, Australia. These are, in essence, all of our stories. We all struggle, and we all heal, often in the safe presence of another human being.
WHY THINGS FEEL F*CKED is more than a book on mental health; it’s an action plan. It strikes the balance between the depth of The Body Keeps The Score and the practicality of The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck.
My hope is that you'll discover fractals of our shared human experience throughout these pages as you ignite your path to self-leadership and true belonging.
Ready to take ownership of your future?

I wrote this book for everyone from adults facing the reality crash of “real life”, to successful professionals who feel stuck, despite achieving traditional markers of success.
Maybe you feel you’ve done all the right things, and should be happy, contented and fulfilled, but something’s missing. Maybe you’re feeling disillusioned in the world and have a hunch life isn’t all it was promised to be. Maybe you feel like your ship has sailed and you’ve lost sight of your capacity to re-engineer your life.
If, instead of feeling content with your successes, you feel stuck in life, burnt out and disconnected from people around you – this book is for you.

This isn't about positive thinking or quick fixes. I've created a science-backed exploration of how modern systems have literally wired our nervous systems for stress and disconnection, plus practical tools I use with my clients to help them rewire for connection and freedom.
Why Things Feel F*cked makes neuroscience accessible, with 200+ pages of practical tools, exercises and real stories. It provides a clear framework to shift your mindset and how you live your life. And it is a book to revisit for lifelong learning and practice, whenever you feel the call.

Absolutely. I've included practical exercises, self-assessments and step-by-step frameworks you can use independently. However, some readers may benefit from professional support as they work through deeper patterns. We are all lifelong works in progress (myself included) and this book is not intended as a replacement for therapy or a quick-fix solution.
