Description
Depression: A Low Mood Gone Haywire Depression is often seen as a simple chemical imbalance, but psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg argues that it's a more complex issue. In this thought-provoking book, he explores the evolutionary origins of depression, suggesting that it's a natural response to our environment. Rottenberg draws on recent scientific research and his own experiences with depression to explain how our emotions evolved to help us survive. He shows how our modern world, where daily survival is no longer the primary focus, can lead to low mood turning into severe, long-lasting depression. This book offers a fresh perspective on depression, one that sheds light on its causes and potential treatments. By weaving together experimental research, epidemiological studies, and personal stories of struggle with depression, Rottenberg aims to reduce stigma around this common condition and offer hope for recovery.
