Let That Sh*t Go: A Journal for Leaving Your Bullsh*t Behind and Creating a Happy Life (Zen as F*ck Journals)

Let That Sh*t Go" attempts to combine humor with meaningful personal development, but the execution feels more focused on shock value than substantive growth tools. While the irreverent tone initially seems refreshing compared to overly earnest self-help materials, the novelty wears thin quickly and begins to feel gimmicky rather than genuinely helpful. What appealed to me initially was the promise of a no-nonsense approach to letting go of negativity and creating positive change. The concept of using humor to make personal development more accessible has real potential, and there are moments where the casual tone does help normalize difficult emotional work. However, the heavy reliance on profanity feels forced and distracting rather than empowering. Instead of creating a relaxed, authentic atmosphere for self-reflection, the constant crude language becomes a barrier to taking the content seriously. The journal prompts themselves are fairly generic and don't offer unique insights or approaches that justify the edgy branding. The physical quality is adequate with decent paper that handles various pen types, but the overall design lacks the thoughtfulness you'd want in a tool meant for meaningful personal work. The layout feels rushed, and the prompts don't build on each other in ways that create genuine momentum for change. For the price point, there are far better self-reflection journals that offer more substantial guidance and lasting value without relying on shock tactics to maintain interest. Skip this unless you're specifically drawn to the profanity-laden approach - better options exist for genuine personal development work.

This journal is just great! All of the journals by Monica Sweeney are! I've bought 3 so far plus a planner and I'll definitely be on the lookout for more! The pages are colorful and funny yet positive and thought provoking. If you have a sense of humor at all you'll love her stuff! I plan to give these as gifts and buy some for myself!

Love, love, love this journal! It makes me pause, reflect, and not take life so seriously. I use pencil so I can come back and laugh at my own notes later. Happiness really is a lifelong project, and this book makes the work a little more fun.

This is more than just a journal. There are great writing prompts to help you replace those negative thoughts and hilarious inspirational quips. This journal is a great way to relax before bed. It's very freeing to just let go of all the bad crap that happened throughout the day. The profanity is my favorite part of the entire book. Very much like my real life. This book makes me feel normal. Like there are other people out there dealing with the same crap. I don't feel so isolated by all the thoughts in my head. I recommend this book because it is both practical and funny. A great way to begin learning how to live a more peaceful life.

I really liked this journal more than I expected. It’s simple, easy to use, and doesn’t feel overwhelming or preachy. The prompts are straightforward and actually make you pause and reflect without feeling like homework. What I appreciate most is that it doesn’t try too hard. It encourages letting things go in a realistic way, not in a “just be positive” kind of mindset. It’s easy to pick up, write a little, and move on with your day feeling lighter. The layout is clean and inviting, and it doesn’t feel intimidating even if you’re not someone who journals every day. You can use it at your own pace, which makes it feel more personal and less like an obligation.

This journal is everything!! First it has everything you would need if you need a laugh, having a rough day to jocking down your feeling. I love it not your average journal it does have swear if your someone that doesn't like that stuff. Overall get it for yourself or gift it.

Got this for a friend of mine. Wanted to buy myself one after looking at it. Funny and fun to fill out!

I really like this book, it’s going to be a great New Year inspiration with lots of positive reflections…
