Review of LOST CONNECTIONS

 


LOST CONNECTIONS

Why You're Depressed

and How to Find Hope

 

JOHANN HARI

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Having had PTSD since Vietnam, I decided to read this book. My VA psychiatrists thought I was unreasonable because I believe Big Pharma and the Government concerning antidepressants are out to confuse us. Needless to say, I never took any of their pills - long story.

Mr. Hari, in the first half of his dissertation tells how there is no chemical brain imbalance to warrant taking a pill, confirming my knowledge. He explains the biological, psychological, and sociological reasons and solutions for depressions and how people and groups overcame them.

Then, in his cures, he goes rogue by describing a group saving process, which I know is liberal in his devotion and explanation: universal basic income. I have lived on the Seminole Reservation in Hollywood, Florida, for four years with friends. I can honestly say Mr. Hari is delusional with his socialistic justifications for UBI.

I will say, though, Mr. Hari's writing and research through most of the book were well written and to the point. Although to alleviate your depression, I recommend reading any good book with a drink or two and or a dog to pet as part of your cure.

Add meeting with good friends to the equation, and you are on your way to somewhat of a happy life. 

It was my solution.
