Reviews
Anna's the best journalist I know. Her story about the mental health care-system, as seen through her own experience, is an act of monumental bravery. This is a book that will save lives., Told with intimate understanding and heartwrenching humor, the book sheds some much-needed light on the far-reaching impacts of this unpredictable mental illness., "An International Bestseller Finalist for the 2019 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction "As gripping a memoir as it is a commanding work of journalism. With a scope that ranges from intimate to panoramic, Anna Mehler Paperny expands outward from her own struggles with suicidal thoughts to explore the dizzying array of medical anti-depression treatments that are available around the world. Personable and passionate--and full of raucous, life-affirming humor--the book casts much-needed light on one of the most persistent and mystifying diseases of our time. This is an urgent read in societies such as ours, where, directly or otherwise, everyone's life is increasingly affected by depression.", [Paperny's] skill as a journalist is evident both in the seamless ease with which she moves from one topic to another and in her ability to break down complex ideas into accessible and engaging prose. . . . It's hard to imagine any group of people who wouldn't benefit in some way from reading this book. Those who have been through the system will feel less alone in their experiences, and those who haven't will gain necessary insight into what it's like. Paperny ends not with the story of a triumphant recovery or a miraculous cure, but a call to arms: let's fix this broken system. Her work will go a long way toward helping readers understand just how vital that need is., I learned so much from [Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me] about depression, its history, its treatment, and avenues for solutions. You'll learn a great deal too from her engaging, and funny, and courageous book., Journalist Mehler Paperny offers a startling and intimate portrait of her multiple attempts at suicide and digs into the disturbingly inadequate 'toolbox' available to individuals suffering from acute depression. . . .This earnest and informative volume serves as a frank guide for those dealing with depression., The world needs more Anna Mehler Papernys, not fewer. Brave, compassionate, insightful, and wincingly self-aware. Ready to challenge convention, hold feet to the fire, to 'punch in the face with words,' as she puts it in her book . . . Anna has announced herself as one of the most tenaciously curious working journalists, working minds, that we have., Anna Mehler Paperny illuminates the dark corners of suicide and depression with wit and tenacity. Both an extraordinary work of journalism and a poignant, harrowing--and occasionally funny--memoir. Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me is fearless and necessary., Well-researched, engaging, and highly readable. . . . An eye-opening and humane book treatment of a difficult subject., Raw, frank and dark-humored. It's not a story of redemption or triumph. . . . But, in its unpretentiousness, the book is a must-read for those who want to understand what goes on in the heads of those who take their own lives each year . . . and the multiples more who, like the author, come perilously close. Ms. Mehler Paperny does a masterful job of delving into the complexities of living with depression, the challenges of getting the help you need and why it's so difficult to prevent suicide., Advance Praise for Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me "In this courageous and honest book, Anna Mehler Paperny plumbs the depths of her own acute depression, and also investigates the cultural, social, and historical discourse around despair. She writes with a stunning fluency that belies the narrative's underlying pain.

It belongs in the canon of 'must-reads' to understand mental health treatment today."-- Mark Lukach , author of My Lovely Wife in the Psych Ward "A remarkable book. . . .
