Imagine a book that doesn’t try to fix you, flatter you, or fake its way into your heart. Now imagine it’s staring you down and saying, “You’re not crazy for thinking the world is nuts—because it is.” That’s the tone of David Schecter’s I Am Crazy… And You Are, Too!—a brutally clear-eyed, hilarious, and oddly comforting punch to the collective gut.

Forget the empty optimism. This isn’t a manifesto for positivity. It’s a candid, clever, sometimes rude but always honest reminder that we’ve all been sold a version of life that doesn’t quite add up—and David Schecter isn’t afraid to rip the cover off the whole operation.

This is not a book of “steps.” No secret formula. No glossy promises. What Schecter gives readers is something better: a flashlight and full permission to start poking around in the dark corners of their own thinking—and everyone else’s.

Why This Book Might Make You Squirm (And Why That’s a Good Thing)

Schecter splits his book into two equally fearless sections. First up? You. Yes, you. Not your social profile or polite public face. The real you. The one who panics at night, zones out at work, and plays mental ping-pong between “I’m doing great” and “What’s the point?”

He calls out the emotional shortcuts we take, the mental gymnastics we perform to stay comfortable, and the everyday compromises that slowly strangle authenticity. And he does it in a voice that feels less like a lecture and more like a friend shaking your shoulders saying, “Snap out of it!”

Then he zooms out. Cue the second half of the book, where he takes on society—our politics, our belief systems, our rules, and our quiet agreements to keep pretending that it’s all working. Spoiler: It’s not. And Schecter doesn’t just notice; he makes you notice, too.

But this isn’t a tantrum in book form. It’s full of humor, honesty, and hard-earned insight. You’ll laugh. You’ll probably wince. And you might even feel relieved that someone is finally saying the things we’re all thinking.

About David Schecter: A Man Who’s Actually Done the Stuff People Write About

David Schecter is not a theorist. He’s not a TED Talk in human form. He’s a guy who’s lived, built, lost, rebuilt, and kept showing up—just in a slightly weirder, more observant way than most.

He holds a BSBA in Marketing and an MBA from the University of Denver, but his education didn’t stop there. He dove headfirst into corporate life—working across mining, oil, lumber, shipping, consumer goods, and more—learning what made industries tick, and where the gears started grinding.

Not content with boardrooms alone, he launched real estate ventures worth millions, developed both residential and industrial properties, and started businesses that ranged from car washes to a country bar. He even got involved in publishing cookbooks and calendars.

Schecter is a single father who coached his sons’ sports teams while juggling business meetings and property deals. He’s served on nonprofit boards and church councils. And just to keep things weird in the best way—he sings and plays piano in public.

Through it all, one thing stayed consistent: his ability to call BS when he sees it. And he sees a lot. That’s what drives this book—not arrogance, but the hard-earned realization that too many people are following a script that doesn’t work for them.

This Isn’t a Book. It’s a Dare.

If you’re someone who’s ever felt exhausted by the act of pretending—pretending you’re fine, pretending the system makes sense, pretending you believe what you’re supposed to—this book might sting a little. But it also might wake you up.

Schecter isn’t here to comfort you. He’s here to hand you the keys to your own brain, and maybe blow open a few doors along the way.

He’s not asking you to believe him. He’s just asking you to believe yourself—for once.
