Here's an all-new, revised and updated
edition of the most readable book on depression. Folks who are feeling
really depressed don't feel much like reading, but You Can Beat
Depression is a very reader-friendly self-help guide. This important
resource has been recognized by the National Mental Health Association. Readers will
find helpful material on prevention of depression, prevention of relapse
after treatment, brief therapy interventions, exercise and other
non-medical approaches, the Prozac controversy, and much more. Includes
an up-to-date consumer guide to medications. Pays for itself with its
comprehensive approach to self-assessment, carefully guiding readers to
figure out when and how they can help themselves, when they need to seek
professional treatment, and what to expect along the way. The American
Library Association Booklist calls this "an excellent
self-help guide… [which] could help anyone beat the blues quickly and
effectively."
