About this listen

‘Rose Cartwright breaks all our old certainties and liberates us to approach our mental struggles with new humanity and creativity. The book cannot fail to interest anyone concerned with their mind’s bewildering beautiful complexities’ ALAIN DE BOTTON

'Radically open-minded. An extraordinary, paradigm-shifting work' NATHAN FILER

Featuring interviews with leading figures including Amanda Fielding, Michael Pollan and Gabor Maté

What if treating misery as a medical problem is making us miserable?

Someone dies by suicide every 40 seconds.

Antidepressant use in the West has more than doubled in the last twenty years.

Yet no biological test can diagnose any mental health problem.

So where are we going wrong?

Rose Cartwright was once the poster-girl for OCD. Now, she reveals how the failure of the mental health system led her to radical action. Uncovering her trauma through a series of mind-bending psychedelic trips, she explores a new path to healing.

If you have ever asked yourself: ‘why am I like this?’

This revolutionary book – part memoir, part manifesto – could change your life.

I just finished Pure on a whim and then was fascinated to observe that this was the same author and had this book saved in my wish list. Absolutely brilliant the insights I gleaned from this book on the mental health system. The whole thing seems turned on its head and I feel like this book is a game changer with the way I have framed my own diagnosis and how I perceive things now. I purchased a physical copy and will definitely be rereading this.
