How to Heal Depression

People with depression no longer need to suffer. More then two-thirds of the fifteen million Americans who are depressed don't know it. One of them may be your friend, co-worker, child, parent, or spouse. One of them may even be you. Depression is an illness--like heart disease, high blood pressure or diabetes. It may be genetic. Being depressed is nobody's fault. It is nothing to be ashamed of. It is an illness. Depressed people and their loved ones often think if they would just "cheer up," "get a hold of themselves," and "stop being so lazy," they would "snap out of it." This is not true. You might as well ask yourself to "snap out of" a toothache. The good news is that depression is easily treated with medication and short-term therapy that is effective in more than eighty percent of the cases. If you think there's even a possibility you or someone you love may be depressed, please read this book.
