It’s not like pharm or Med surg where it’s ‘this is right, and this is wrong’. This book helped me SIGNIFICANTLY to understand WHY certain answers were correct/incorrect. It helped me to think critically a different way than I’m used to. I failed my first mental health test. The second & third test after that I got OVER 90%. I did all the questions in this book under the section we were learning; read through the notes ONCE. And that’s IT. DEFINITELY get this book if you’re struggling in mental health or afraid of what’s to come in mental health. Best decision I’ve made in nursing school so far.”—Chelsey S.
