Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me by Anna Mehler Paperny

Yes, stigma exists, but so do cultural hurdles and physical limitations such as literally being able to see a doctor in person (the latter being a very real barrier for people in rural areas). Throughout the book, the author spends a lot of time a lot of time talking about different treatment options, from common medications to more experimental trials, and different barriers people face.

It’s an uncomfortable personal exploration of a sickeningly common illness no one likes talking about, one that remains under-treated and poorly treated and grossly inequitably treated in part because of our own squeamishness in confronting it, or our own destruction it wrecks when left to its own devices. One quote in particular really stuck with me, and describes the book’s narrative perfectly: It should be noted that the author’s personal experience is used to comment on aspects of her research, and she also interviews other individuals on their personal experiences with depression as well. The book is written as part memoir and part investigative journalism-two styles of writing that I love. The more we talk about suicide, the less stigma there is, and the easier it (hopefully) becomes for people to seek treatment options. It’s a triggering narrative, but also incredibly important. In the author’s case, a depression so intense that it caused her to attempt suicide multiple times. In Hello I Want To Die Please Fix Me by Anna Mehler Paperny, readers get a first-person narrative on what life is like with depression. This was a very difficult book for me to read.
