I absolutely love this book, and I’ll continue to read it again and again. This is one of the most helpful books for when I’m in a depressive funk because it’s all about fighting depression with some evidence-based methods. But best of all, it’s written by a normal person. Oliver is an incredible author, and I love all of his books. This book was just what I needed while dealing with my depressive brain. It reminded me about stoic philosophy, the importance of meditation, and not comparing my success to others. I love this book and can’t recommend it enough.

AMAZING book. The book I read before this was similar, but it was kind of a bummer. This one did an excellent job showing the positives of negative thinking
