In a world where anxiety, depression, and chronic illnesses are becoming increasingly common, Dr. Jabeur Mathe’s book “The Myth of Normalcy” explores the illusion we live in, when we believe that “normalcy” is something natural. The author argues that many things we consider normal in our modern societies—from constant stress to detachment from oneself—are actually signs of a deep flaw in our relationship with ourselves and the world around us. Through his extensive experience as a physician and therapist, Mathe links psychological pressures, traumatic experiences in childhood, and modern lifestyles together. He explains that illness isn’t a deviation from normalcy, but rather a result of losing touch with our human essence.
