Alika Lafontaine, M.D. From an award-winning physician, health innovator, and former head of the Canadian Medical Association comes a groundbreaking exploration of how anger and a sense of betrayal deepen into outrage when we lose hope that change is possible—and a guide to finding our way back, individually and together.If you’ve found your way to this book, you may be troubled by the rising tension in the world around you. Perhaps you’ve been carrying a frustration that defies explanation, or you've watched someone close to you slowly slip into anger. Conversations that were once easy are now strained or distant. You may feel as if you’re walking on eggshells—or notice that others are on edge when they're around you. You might not have the words for what you’re experiencing, but you know that something essential has been lost. Like trust. Even hope. If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone. And you’re not wrong for feeling it.The Outrage Cure draws on Dr. Alika Lafontaine's decades of personal and professional experiences to reveal how outrage distorts the way we see one another, the systems we work in, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are. The Outrage Cure doesn’t ask you to stop caring or to quiet your anger. Instead, it poses important, necessary questions: What happens when anger no longer moves us forward? What do we do when outrage, once a response to harm, becomes the harm itself? In answering these questions, it invites you to examine what we’re carrying, how it’s shaping us, and what it might take to put it down. The world may deserve your outrage. But you deserve more than what it leaves you with.
