Product Description
Review
"I feel this is an excellent book - we have used the previous edition in our practice... I would stongly recommend that every general practice has a few copies to loan out to patients."
(BMA Medical Book Awards 2010 )Product Description
Building on the success of previous editions, Overcoming Depression and Low Mood presents a series of self-help workbooks for use in self-assessing and managing depression and periods of low mood, with support from a health care professional.
This book covers all the issues that are known to be problematic in depression in the clear, user-friendly format that is associated with the 'Overcoming...' series. The interactive questions and worksheets are a key feature of the series and they are plentiful and appropriate in this new title.
Using the established Five Areas Assessment model of depression, the book provides a clear model of intervention using the proven cognitive behaviour therapy evidence-based approach. It is empowering and supportive, helping readers make changes to their lives in a planned and achievable way.
The workbooks also provide an invaluable resource for counsellors, general practitioners, nursing staff, psychiatrists, social workers and others working with people suffering from low mood or depression.

Format:Paperback
If you have ever experienced any level of depression then this book can help. It is a course which is very easy to follow and you can choose how much or how little you read to meet your own need. The start is an assessment of what help you need and how to use the rest of the book to get that help. There are also references to the website where more information is available.
A very useful product also for anyone who lives or works with someone who experiences depression or low mood.
If you are looking for a CBT course and can't get a place then try this book in the meantime.

Clear and well constructed this is an excellent book. Not for reading cover to cover but as a support and tool to help work through issues and find a path forward.

A useful book for helping with mild conditions. I feel, however, that more serious long term sufferers would be better advised to seek professional help.
