Lost Connections: Why You're Depressed and How to Find Hope by Johann Hari

5.0

---

If you want to understand depression and anxiety, please read this book. I am skeptical of mainstream writers commenting on mental health, yet Hari lays out the research comprehensively and positions themselves (& related biases) in their writing honestly & transparently. This book gets a 5 star because a collective response which encompasses social change is necessary for healing and addressing the pain of living in this world. The individual can only do so much, when the society in which they live is sick.

Another world is possible & we can build it together
