Depression sucks. But that doesn't mean we can't laugh at it.

In this brutally honest (and strangely hilarious) deep dive into the rollercoaster that is depression, David Hansen lays it all bare-the dark thoughts, the awkward therapy sessions, and the well-meaning but completely useless advice from people. With a mix of intimate stories, self-deprecating humour, and charmingly crude cartoons, Hansen demystifies the beast of depression and offers practical, no-nonsense ways to wrestle it into submission.

This isn't your typical self-help book. There are no flowery affirmations and absolutely zero yoga poses. Instead, you'll find real talk, real tools, and a lot of laughs along the way. Whether you're in the trenches yourself or just trying to understand the struggle, Hansen's refreshingly candid take on mental health will make you feel seen-and maybe even a little hopeful.

This book contains practical exercises, insights, and advice on both situational and long-term depression from someone living with depression themselves.
