Publisher Description

From the New York Times best-selling author of Chasing the Scream, a radically new way of thinking about depression and anxiety.

What really causes depression and anxiety - and how can we really solve them? Award-winning journalist Johann Hari suffered from depression since he was a child and started taking antidepressants when he was a teenager. He was told that his problems were caused by a chemical imbalance in his brain. As an adult, trained in the social sciences, he began to investigate whether this was true - and he learned that almost everything we have been told about depression and anxiety is wrong.

Across the world, Hari found social scientists who were uncovering evidence that depression and anxiety are not caused by a chemical imbalance in our brains. In fact, they are largely caused by key problems with the way we live today. Hari's journey took him from a mind-blowing series of experiments in Baltimore, to an Amish community in Indiana, to an uprising in Berlin.

Once he had uncovered nine real causes of depression and anxiety, they led him to scientists who are discovering seven very different solutions - ones that work. It is an epic journey that will change how we think about one of the biggest crises in our culture today.

Packed with new information

Challenges what we thought of as “facts”. Some reviews talked about political propaganda, I didn’t see it like that at all.

a vision of the new world to come

this book is required reading for anyone touched by depression and anxiety. in other words, everybody. it enumerates and presents solutions to problems at the heart of our modern society. it’s clear to me that if we address these problems, not only will it help depressed and anxious people feel better, but it will dramatically improve quality of life for everyone. read this book if you want to be part of creating a new and beautiful world.
