New Self-Help Book Released By Ian Price - The Adult Manual

NEW YORK - Rezul -- Why does adulthood feel harder than it should? Why does doing "everything right" still feel wrong?

A newly released book, The Adult Manual: Everything You Were Supposed to Learn but Didn't, tackles the quiet struggles millions of adults carry but rarely discuss: money anxiety, constant responsibility, burnout, invisible expectations, and the unspoken rules that shape modern life.

Unlike traditional self-help titles built on motivation or productivity hacks, The Adult Manual takes a different approach. It does not push hustle culture or extreme transformation. Instead, it offers clarity, explaining why adult life feels heavy and how understanding the systems behind money, work, and responsibility can make it lighter.

The book is written for people who worked hard, took responsibility early, and still feel behind. It speaks directly to readers who have ever thought:

• "I should have this figured out by now."
• "Why does everything feel harder than it should?"
• "No one explained this part."

Calm, grounded, and practical, the book reads like the honest conversation many adults wish they had years ago.

• The psychological weight of modern responsibility
• Why money stress lingers even when you are "doing okay"
• How invisible social and workplace rules shape adult behavior
• The link between pressure, burnout, and identity
• How to reduce unnecessary stress by understanding how systems actually work

Rather than offering quick fixes, the book provides structure, perspective, and language for experiences many adults have struggled to name.
