NHS psychiatrist, award-winning comedian, and Sunday Times best-selling author Benji Waterhouse - is going on his first book tour!
 
Through a mixture of stand-up and chapter readings he unlocks the doors to the psych ward and answers life’s big questions. 
 
What’s the secret to happiness? What’s the best way to escape from a psychiatric hospital? And what is the difference between a psychiatrist, a psychologist and a psychic?
