NEW BOOK REVIEW: Lost Connections: The Real Causes of Depression and the Unexpeced Solutions, by Johann Hari

 

I loved Johann Hari's book Chasing The Scream-The First & The Last Days On The War on Drugs so much, that I immediately purchased his newest book: Lost Connections: The Real Causes of Depression and the Unexpected Solutions, and listened to it on Audible.  It was so good, I couldn't stop listening to it and finished it within 3 days!

All I can say is READ or LISTEN To IT!  It is so relevant to ACE's science.  He references Dr. Felitti and the ACE's research in it.  He also covers childhood trauma, plus many, many more areas that really speak to the bio/psycho/social model of healing, resilience and hope for a more compassionate, connected and resilient future for our species and our planet.

His message is so compelling about the real causes of depression and offers some really innovative & creative solutions to heal.  

If you or someone you know is suffering with depression, anxiety or is on psychotropic meds I believe it is a must read.

I hope you enjoy it!

Oh my gosh! Yesterday I had to drive from SD to LA and back and ordered the audible version for the drive. I was riveted! I'm usually aggravated by the horrible Los Angeles traffic, but this time I was quite fine because I was able to get through 2/3 of the book in one day. I loved that Hari had an entire chapter on ACEs. I found his premise--that we need human connection and that anything that severs that (ACEs, the trappings of modern society, etc.) has dire consequences--airtight. Compelling read! Thanks so much for posting Mary.
