Johann Hari: Lost Connections
THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!
Johann Hari’s previous New York Times bestselling book, Chasing the Scream, transformed the global debate about drug addiction and America’s war on drugs.
Hari now presents Lost Connections leading us to a very different debate about depression and anxiety. Join Johann Hari for a Brisbane Powerhouse Writers + Ideas exclusive evening rethinking anxiety and depression and how we can end this epidemic, once and for all.
Award-winning journalist Johann Hari suffered from depression since he was a child and started taking anti-depressants when he was a teenager. He was told that his problems were caused by a chemical imbalance in his brain. As an adult, trained in the social sciences, he began to investigate whether this was true – and he learned that almost everything we have been told about depression and anxiety is wrong.
Johann Hari will be signing copies of Lost Connections on the evening of this event.
