The ending of this video is actually very touching. While the video had started off explaining how Johann Hari realized he was depressed, and that medications weren’t the problem to his solution. He realized that it was his lack of in person social connection. Johann had learned that communities and groups have better social skill, and typically live happier compared to the other pieces of the world. He went to talk about a great story in Berlin. There was a woman who said she would kill herself the day she was evicted. Many other people in the same building realized that they had a similar situation, and eventually they banded together and they locked out the people trying to kick them out, and caused a massive protest. They had a member of their group whom escaped a psycatric institute. He was arrested for assault, after trying to hug an officer, and placed back into an institute. Their community rioted outside of the institute because he belonged with them. I liked this story the most because it showed the humanity of a closely knit group.
