Thanks to Obamacare, when a humorist that Hadassah Magazine called “perhaps more neurotic than Woody Allen and just as funny” faces the prospect of going for one day without health insurance, anxiety runs rampant. At stake is not only Wendy Aron’s mental health but also the survival of a once-proud country now fighting political, socioeconomic, and cultural decay.

Author Bio

Wendy writes Psychology Today's “Sounds Awful” blog about living with a condition now known as misophonia. She is an award-winning humorist (Society of Professional Journalists), television sitcom writer (Writers Guild of America, West), and comic playwright (McLaren Festival). In her spare time, she enjoys jumping to conclusions, making sweeping generalizations, and going her own way.

Rave reviews for author’s extremely shallow past work:

“In her efforts to subdue raging depression, TV and stage writer Aron tried to no avail virtually every mainstream and alternative remedy. Her adventures among the lunatic fringe are laugh-out-loud funny. In the end, Aron gets her life together by dismissing all of the ‘miracle cures’ and discovering herself. Anyone who has overcome recurring bouts with the blues will relish this comic self-help tale.” —School Library Journal


“Sitcom writer Wendy Aron has written a hysterically funny book about a very unfunny subject: being paralyzed by depression. Perhaps more neurotic than Woody Allen and just as funny, Aron survives a year of self-help groups and therapy by homing in on the scariness and inanities of the meetings. This Jewish New Yorker’s sharp, self-deprecating humor can dissolve suffering into laughter.” —Hadassah Magazine

“Learning how to cope with hopelessness has never been so fun.” —Foreword
