The Myth of Normal

In 'The Myth of Normal', Gabor Maté shows what 'normal' means in a toxic society for trauma, illness and healing.

In 'The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Society,' Gabor Maté dissects the underlying causes of our physical and emotional distress, and connects our personal suffering with the pressures of a hectic existence.

We tend to believe that "normal" equals "being healthy." But how healthy is that standard really? Maté discovered that the current definition of "normal" is incorrect: almost all illness is a natural reflection of life in an unhealthy society, where healthcare has become increasingly detached from ourselves.

In this insightful and empathetic book, he shows us that the key to healing lies in restoring our humanity and embracing our authenticity, regardless of societal expectations.

In 'The Myth of Normal,' Gabor Maté takes us on an epic journey of discovery into how our emotional well-being and social connectedness (in short: how we live) are intimately intertwined with health, illness, and addiction. This compelling and beautifully written story has far-reaching implications for our lives and (mental) healthcare. – Bessel van der Kolk, author of Traumasporen
