This was a good fast read. It just took me a minute to get through it due to a reading slump.
Good information, I would recommend it.

A pretty quick read with some great information covering depression in many different aspects and what a person can do to deal with/manage it. A good book to recommend to clients struggling with depression.

Very informative book for those who suffer with depression. A lot of self-help ideas. I would also recommend this book for people who live with someone who suffers from this dreadful disease.
