Whether you are, aren't sure, or convinced you are not, this is a worthwhile book to read. Everyone knows someone who is depressed, and this book is so helpful for understanding what depression feels like from people in all age ranges. There are stories from people who have suffered from depression most of their lives to people who found solutions early on. I was lucky to happen upon this book in my therapist's office (she practically has a library there) and took it home to read because I am being treated for depression and also have a young son who is depressed. I have now purchased the book for my son. This book offers so much hope to those who are suffering from depression and so much insight to those who know someone depressed.

Excellent. In the depths of my depression, I found it impossible to read anything of significance - the information simply would "not go in". This book was written by a woman who obviously knows this particular dilemma of the depressed person. Each page is a separate mini-story of someone's struggle with depression, providing insight and encouragement in perfect, easily digestible doses.
Format:Paperback
After struggling with depression for most of my life, I
discovered this book at precisely the right time. Basically,
it's an oral history of "normal" people who suffer from
terrible depression. It made me realize that the worst thing
about depression is that you feel so alone when you are
depressed and, worse, you feel slightly crazy when you finally snap
out of it and look back. This book makes you realize that
the experience is more universal than you think and that
there are a lot of talented, achieving people who struggle
with depression and that you are, indeed, not alone.
