When You Cannot Switch Off

It is a quarter to midnight, and you are technically in bed.

When You Cannot Switch Off is a compassionate, practical guide that meets this experience with warmth, clarity, and structure. Across its chapters, Elia Sal explores the mind that will not clock off, rumination is not thinking, and the residue work leaves behind. At its centre is the Switch-Off Method, a repeatable way to turn insight into realistic next steps.

Inside, readers will find:
• clear explanations that make a difficult experience easier to name
• reflective questions and grounded practices
• small, realistic actions that can be returned to without shame

Written in direct, humane language, this book is for readers who want to feel less alone, understand what is happening, and move forward at their own pace.
