A Very Helpful Book About Depression

Weisseguy May 3rd, 2019

If you suffer from depression or want to understand more about depression or how to better support someone who suffers from depression I strongly recommend the book Undoing Depression: What Therapy Doesnt Teach You and Medication Cant Give You by Dr. Richard OConnor.

Its been instrumental in helping me understand and cope with my own depression. Its full of great advice, impactful stories, and therapeutic techniques. Its been revised a number of times so make sure you get the most recent version. That being said, mine was a 1997 revision and I still found it very helpful. Hopefully you will too!

Take care!

I think 'Feeling good" by Dr Burns is also a good book on CBT
