Sometimes, the legacy of depression includes a wisdom beyond one's years, a depth of passion unexperienced by those who haven't traveled to hell and back. Off the charts in its enlightening, comprehensive analysis of this pervasive yet misunderstood condition, The Noonday Demon forges a long, brambly path through the subject of depression--exposing all the discordant views and "answers" offered by science, philosophy, law, psychology, literature, art, and history. The result is a sprawling and thoroughly engrossing study, brilliantly synthesized by author Andrew Solomon.

Deceptively simple chapter titles (including "Breakdowns," "Treatments," "Addiction," "Suicide") each sit modestly atop a virtual avalanche of Solomon's intellect. This is not a book to be skimmed. But Solomon commands the language--and his topic--with such grace and empathy that the constant flow of references, poems, and quotations in his paragraphs arrive like welcome dinner guests. A longtime sufferer of severe depression himself, Solomon willingly shares his life story with readers. He discusses updated information on various drugs and treatment approaches while detailing his own trials with them. He describes a pharmaceutical company's surreal stage production (involving Pink Floyd, kick dancers, and an opener à la Cats) promoting a new antidepressant to their sales team. He chronicles his research visits to assorted mental institutions, which left him feeling he would "much rather engage with every manner of private despair than spend a protracted time" there. Under Solomon's care, however, such tales offer much more than shock value. They show that depression knows no social boundaries, manifests itself quite differently in each person, and has become political. And, while it may worsen or improve, depression will never be eradicated. Hope lies in finding ways--as Solomon clearly has--to harness its powerful lessons. --Liane Thomas

适当忧郁是正常美丽的,但是如果成为病态确实很可怕. 两者之间是如何转化的呢? 那些敏感的头脑,为人类带来更多的思想,很可怜地更容易受这种病的侵扰。 尽管有很重要的天生遗传成分,但是,忧郁转化为症难道就不能自控预防吗? 很同情

很久没有读过如此沉重的书。 没有给力荐,因为我真心希望,你不需要去读这一本书。 癌症是从微尘开始生长吞噬你的巨龙。心脏病是在你阴影里偷偷尾随不知何时发难的死神。而抑郁症,就是在正午的阳光下,微笑着敲开你房门的恶魔。 你看得见它,你了解它,它就像浮士德的朋友梅菲...

恐惧是内心的困兽,愈是喂养它便愈发强壮,直到有一天跑出来,吞掉你。 记得大一上学期还没过半,班上说是要转来一位男同学,教室即刻炸了锅。作为稀有存在的男性物种,一直是外语专业的焦点话题,种种臆测为转学生罩上了一层又一层的诡异光环——直到他本人出现在大家眼前。...

我的抑郁情况持续了6年,09年开始,15年初暂时结束,期间好转过一两年,有过两段频繁崩溃的时期。 第一段崩溃发生在大一第二学期开学,那个时候我出现了抑郁症的典型症状:厌食、失眠、大量的噩梦,对一切事情都只感觉到绝望。 我缺席了补考,独自一个人绕着学校走,慢走、调整...

看这本书的是时候是在南京,那时候每天状态很差,晚上睡觉头痛,半夜躲被子里哭,白天脸苍白被人说像个死人,浑浑噩噩的。 现在离家近了,我自己租在外面,每个星期回家一次,但是反而不像以前那样厉害了。 有时候回到我住的地方,躺在床上我起不来,可以说...

先标个英文版,等理想国的新译本。读这本书仿佛经历一场悲伤脱敏。不是所有人都患有临床抑郁,但是每个人都有自己无力的方面。用悲伤来习惯悲伤,以见证更多的无力来麻痹自己的无力。就像书中的一个例子,医生告诉小孩,把脑袋的疼痛放在一个角落,用其他部分做事情。读完也会能以更多的视角看待自己的情绪、对于世事的无奈,虽然不愿承认,但这些东西也在对我发挥一些积极作用。
