Johann Hari discusses the real causes of depression 

Here is a really good video of Johann giving a speech ON HIS OWN on depression for about an hour and it's brilliant. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hfl3Yh7fS4g.html

I thought i was the only one that noticed they are talking over each other.

You need to give in. You sound like a mature person and sometimes maturity comes at a cost. I'm not saying be immature but look at people with less judgement and forgive their behavior even if it annoys you. Some find solace in books and nature. At the end of the day man is meant to be a social being, as clichéd and overheard that statement is, it is true. I've been like you and I've had friends like you, eventually it's understanding that you never have as much time as you think you do. This world is just to observe and learn from and hopefully impart to others. Take yourself off the pedestal and that natural self centered-ness and you'll wake up tomorrow a completely different man. Worst case it's worth a shot. Wishing you all the best!

Danny Boy. If depression affects physical health visit a psychologist. In life there are only 2 problems --mind and the body. . To feel better reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath and mind [brain] are closely related and gives good relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. Let change happen. When taking a walk, sitting in a park, at office, when reading, before sleep etc observe your breath sensations. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Reduce negative social media. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes. Senior Counsellor.

It's true depression is a illness that other people help to give people.

Don't stay isolate depression could turn easily into dementia like that seek help stay safe

🤣😆 can always use a great belly laugh...ty !! Peace

maryann Hope where do Zombies swim? ... the Dead Sea, of course

@@mopthermopther 🤣😆😆😂

because you dont see the bigger picture. the world was never better than now.

Brilliant. R.I.P. George Carlin.

Challenging accepted wisdom in a nuanced way will get you a lot of hate from MSM.

claire larravide that is so cool😎🤗 thanks for that!

Never heard that before. It makes sense. Thanks for sharing.

Frances Caraballo- Good point

Gonna need less edge on that

The mental health industry is fairly useless, and I saw this as someone with a background in psychology. Taking psych meds isn't much better than taking street drugs -- okay, so the meds are pharmaceutically pure and you don't have to worry about ingesting gasoline or who knows what, but at the end of the day, you'll still be dependent on a chemical to feel good. Watch this -- it will bring you more understanding than a dozen therapists: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zb8yjAgAqXg.html

So what was the medicine ?

Escudo Most likely ketamine.

Escudo: what is medication?

So, should we all go to Mayo Clinic? Why are you commenting here?

@@Amolibri I’m saying they’re #1 in the world. If you want accurate results go there. I suffered for far too long. Mayo Clinic figured out my peace of mind in 24 hours. It’s worth it whatever it costs you❤️

Yeah, but it's like beggining of the truth. Still better advice than mainsteam psychology is giving to people: "it's chemical imbalance, nothing you can do about it, just take those pills for the rest of your life, NEXT".

Are you saying Johann is a lay person and shouldn't give advice? If that's your statement you clearly didn't listen to this interview closely or listen/read any of his work. He clearly states in this interview many times that he speaks with experts on the subject. He constantly cites credible studies. So Johann isn't giving his advice, as you say, he is simply passing along the advice and research of the experts on this subject.

@@asdzxcz1360 You mean mainstream psychiatry, not psychology

@@ted_nemeth Read what I wrote again.

Watch his TED talk. Its about re finding purpose, giving you something to get out of bed for. The Portuguese addiction segment in the ted talk makes more sense to me than anything I've ever heard. Absolutely brilliant.

Pink Sky i don’t think Lina Myscow would be intimidated by anybody actually. It’s not that they aren’t letting her get a word in - it’s that they are both experts in their field. So she’s allowing them to speak. But then she speaks about her personal experience. You’re finding a problem where one doesn’t exist. No wonder the world is depressed!

Steve Maggs I’m about as conservative as it gets & DEFINITELY not a feminist so I rarely see anything as sexist. I’m not that chick. With that said, I know sexism when I see it and they were definitely talking over her and assuming their own words were more important. You’re not going to be as aware of it if you haven’t experienced it or go into everything thinking the concept of sexism is overblown or not really a thing.

Get yourself to spec savers. Many many many videos of a team of males debating and every one of them talk over each other. Is Piers Morgan also sexist now? He does it to almost everyone.

Women and men are equal. Not because she is a woman, she deserves to talk half of the show

Hare you any beter?

Fermin please will you do a colonic to me?

Lol right mate

Well said

Pretty much the opposite of everything you wrote

Rhys Andrew not according to nearly every social study. Professor of psychology Jordan Peterson details this his works to a large extent. Definitely worth looking into even if you don't agree

'Feminist' pressure to have a career ? How ridiculous. Women have careers because they want them. We fought to have the opportunity to be educated and have opportunities to have a career. The pressure on mother's to keep working (when they don't want to) after having children (especially fulltime and very soon after having a baby) is generally a financial necessity or out of fear of losing their career. That's pressure brought on by capitalism, not feminism. Explain women going back to work as a waitress or cleaner if its pressure from feminism ? Women are very capable of making rational decisions based on the needs of their family and their own futures thank you very much. We are not all running around worrying about what other career women think of us all the time. Even when we go back to work within a year of giving birth it can badly affect our careers and puts a huge dent in our superannuation. There is no part of feminist philosophy that says all women/mothers have to have careers. Feminism is about having choices and creating opportunities for people, regardless of gender, to pursue the life that best suits their personality. Its about allowing men to take on care giving roles and women to join the army if thats what suits them better, not forcing all women to be working mothers.
