Overview

WE'RE NOT F*CKED You're not broken. You're just drowning in bad news. Every morning, you wake up and reach for your phone. Before you've even opened your eyes, you're scrolling through all the catastrophes. Climate disasters, political chaos, economic collapse, wars, pandemics! By breakfast, you've consumed more crisis content than your great-grandparents encountered in a year. You tell yourself you're staying informed. But you're actually training your brain to believe everything is fucked. What if the problem isn't the world? It's how you're seeing it. Former journalist Zeke Maye knows the machine that's breaking your brain because he helped build it. After years of chasing breaking news and feeding the outrage economy, he hit bottom: anxious, exhausted, and convinced humanity was doomed. Then he discovered something that changed everything. The doom spiral isn't reality-it's a distortion created by the way we consume information. In WE'RE NOT F*CKED, Maye offers a radically different approach. This isn't toxic positivity that ignores real problems. It's not self-help that puts all responsibility on you. It's a practical roadmap for reclaiming your attention, rebuilding your resilience, and engaging with a chaotic world without being destroyed by it. You'll learn: Why your brain is wired for negativity-and how to rewire it for realistic optimism The shocking truth about human progress that the media isn't telling you How to break free from doomscrolling and reclaim your attention from algorithms designed to addict you Why building community isn't optional anymore but infrastructure for survival How to take meaningful action without burning out or giving up The world has genuine problems. You face real challenges. Uncertainty is permanent. But you're not powerless. You're not broken. And you're definitely not fucked. With humor, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, Maye shows you how to navigate difficulty without despair, find meaning in chaos, and build a life that doesn't depend on everything being fine. Because it won't be fine. And that's okay. You can handle it. Stop scrolling. You're not fucked. Start living. The world isn't ending. Your perception is just distorted. Let's fix that.
