Self-Improvement. Nonfiction. HTML:

The challenges smart and creative people encounterâ??from scientific researchers, genius award winners, to bestselling novelists, Broadway actors, high-powered attorneys, and academicsâ?? often include anxiety, over-thinking, mania, sadness, and despair.


Specifically, Dr. Maisel examines:

  • "racing brain syndrome"
  • living in an anti-intellectual culture
  • finding ideas worth loving
  • dealing with boredom and hypersensitivity
  • finding meaning in their lives and their work
  • struggling to achieve success

In Why Smart People Hurt, psychologist Dr. Eric Maisel draws on his many years of work with the best and the brightest to pinpoint these often devastating challenges and offer solutions based on the groundbreaking principles and practices of natural psychology.


His thoughtful strategies include using logic and creativity to cope with the problems of having a brain that goes into overdrive at the drop of a hat. With a series of questions at the end of each chapter, he guides the reader to create his or her own roadmap to a calm and meaningful life.


Why Smart People Hurt
is a must-read for parents of gifted children as well as the millions of smart and creative people that are searching for a more meaningful life.

The title and premise of this book intrigued me, but after having read half of it and still not found much of anything that interested me, I decided to cut my losses and move on. This one is not for me. ( )

This book was pretty awful. I liked the idea but not when the author did things like equating having racing thoughts with being manic, or saying that depression comes from negatively evaluating life. In that case, I will just FOCUS ON THE POSITIVE!!!1 and be totally cured of depression forever. Awesome! Also, saying that racing thoughts = mania is like saying having a tickle in your throat = having pertussis. No. Just no. ( )
