Suggest me a book to lift me out of my pit of despair

I know there have been a few posts like this (and I think there are many folks feeling a bit similar to me) but I’m hoping to add a couple caveats.

I get discharged from a psych ward tomorrow morning. I have bipolar disorder and had made it just under five years without a really severe episode requiring treatment in a hospital. Outside of brain chemistry and some difficulties in my personal life, I think a lot of my stressors had to do with the state of the world and, specifically, the United States’s descent into fascism that seems to be sanctioned today with the inauguration.

I entered the psych ward with a copy of Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace, and while I feel like it’s a great read and I love the writing, my psychiatric team and friends think that I should be reading something a little bit more… positive? My read before that was It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis and I don’t think that helped my overwhelming sense of dread either.

So, all of that to say I’m looking for a book that makes me feel like, despite it all, I can make it through the next four years and beyond. One of my doctors recommend Man’s Search for Meaning and I think that probably fits the general vibe I should be looking for. I’m open to fiction, non-fiction, self help and otherwise, though the bottom line of the book should suggest that things can get better and that good can prevail, even when it looks like positivity and optimism are due to be snuffed out.

Thanks in advance
