Beating depression takes a lot of effort and this book clearly advises the reader on where to focus their energy. It's plainly laid out and user friendly. Practitioners will also benefit from following the treatment strategies discussed. There are plenty of useful forms and techniques to facilitate self help and serve to guide practitioners in helping clients to overcome depression. Highly recommended.

Was recommended this book by my occupational therapist. Ordered it through my library first to check it out. It has lots of practical advise and action plans. Found it so good that I have bought my own copy.

I'd like to just say "Excellent!" and leave it there - but will give reasons.
I liked the writing style. It is set out like a training manual which I liked. I have severe mood swings and this book helped me enormously in identifying and recognising the triggers to my mood swings were not unique or out-of-the ordinary. It enabled me to address the problem - and problem it is/was - with confidence. For example recently an incident occurred which would have left me devastated and low for weeks, but having 'Manage Your Mood' to hand and remembering the information I was able to Manage My Mood most satisfactorily.

Its a good book that has a lot of useful information on depression. My only criticism is the grossly outdated information contained in it about cannabis. Read more
