Johann Hari is an author and a journalist. His previous book was a New York Times Best Seller and his newest, Lost Connections: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression and the Unexpected Solutions, is no doubt on its way to share the same status. It proposes a more holistic, societal look at the causes and treatment of depression - more than the singular chemical imbalance explanation we traditionally consider. The core principal of getting our needs met is a thread that runs throughout this discussion and the deep dive that Johann Hari does on the subject will fascinate you and cause you to stop and think very differently than you have before on this topic that affects so many people in this world.

In This Interview, Johann Hari and I Discuss...
His new book, Lost Connections: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression and the Unexpected Solutions
The two kinds of human connection
Intrinsic (internal) and extrinsic (external) motivations
"Junk" values
The more you're driven by extrinsic values, the more likely you'll suffer from anxiety and depression in your life
Our society drives us to live in this extrinsic way
The whole point of advertising is to make us feel inadequate and our problems can be solved by buying
Extrinsic motives can crowd out the more fulfilling intrinsic motives
The 9 causes of depression and anxiety
The need to look more holistically at anxiety and depression than just a chemical imbalance
That the book is NOT saying not to take medications that help with anxiety and depression
The loneliest culture that has ever been
The importance of addressing the deep environmental factors/reasons why we're so depressed and anxious
Our sense of home and sense of belonging
The problems manifested by being isolated and alone
The benefit of being part of a "tribe"
Realizing that you're not the only one who struggles and feels the way you do
Grief and the diagnosis of depression
Just having a chemical imbalance means your pain doesn't have meaning
Depression and not having your needs met
Following the pain to its source
Pathologizing Depression
