Matt Haig was born in Sheffield, England in1975. He writes books for both adults and children, often blending the worlds of domestic reality and outright fantasy, with a quirky twist. His bestselling novels are translated into 28 languages. The Guardian has described his writing as 'delightfully weird' and the New York Times has called him 'a novelist of great talent' whose writing is 'funny, riveting and heartbreaking'.
His novels for adults are The Last Family in England, narrated by a labrador and optioned for film by Brad Pitt; The Dead Fathers Club (2006), an update of Hamlet featuring an 11-year-old boy; The Possession of Mr Cave (2008), about a man obsessed with his daughter's safety, and The Radleys (2010) which won Channel 4's TV Book Club public vote and was shortlisted for a Galaxy National Book Award (UK). The film rights to all his adult novels have been sold. His next adult novel is The Humans (2013).
His multi-award winning popular first novel for children, Shadow Forest, was published in 2007 and its sequel, The Runaway Troll, in 2009. His most recent children's novel is To Be A Cat (2012).
Reasons to Stay Alive is about making the most of your time on earth. In the western world the suicide rate is highest amongst men under the age of 35. Matt Haig could have added to that statistic when, aged 24, he found himself staring at a cliff-edge about to jump off. This is the story of why he didn't, how he recovered and learned to live with anxiety and depression. It's also an upbeat, joyous and very funny exploration of how live better, love better, read better and feel more.

评分请靠女朋友走出抑郁的自救书退出自救界
评分3/4/18-8/4/18 看了小河公众号上的文章找来这本书看的。感觉书的前三分之一描述的有点混乱,可能是为了体现作者刚得抑郁症那段时间的混乱感?后面才渐入佳境,但是最后不可避免的变成俗套的心灵鸡汤。#reasonstostayalive https://book.douban.com/review/9283570/

评分这本书真的应该注明trigger alert。作者太多的经历感受甚至于文字比喻我都能在自己身上找到相似和对应。某种程度上读起来很痛苦。Part 1 - 4都有能找到自己影子的地方,到了Part 5变成了一些作者后来的思考,感觉是个很平和的人,真好。观点是认同的,不过需要时间。然而除去抑郁症这个标签之下自身的问题,还是靠自己去解决啊。 真的很希望家属都可以看看,尽管未必能够理解。
