Your Depression Map
by Randy J. Paterson
Mental health professionals have recently discovered the benefits of defining an individual’s particular depression — a process called depression mapping — and then building a program tailored to the patient’s personality and lifestyle. Based on the premise that depression is not an isolated disorder but a cluster of related disorders, this workbook asks readers to look at the multiple causes and symptoms of their depression and the myths that may hinder healing. Readers then devise their own individual depression map. Included are guidelines that include illustrations, charts, graphs, and exercises for strengthening motivation, setting reasonable goals, controlling thoughts and emotions, managing stress, assessing biochemical and physical approaches, and evaluating outside help.

Depression Fallout
by Anne Sheffield
What happens to love when a partner is depressed? Is your partner's depression undermining your happiness as a couple? After blaming yourself, losing your self-esteem, and getting angry, you may feel like walking away -- even if you're still in love. With 19 million Americans suffering from depression, you are not alone in your unhappiness. And no one knows what you're going through better than Anne Sheffield, who coined the phrase "depression fallout" in her first book, How You Can Survive When They're Depressed , to describe the emotional toll of depression on spouses, parents, lovers, and children. Now, using poignant, real-life stories from her on-line support group (www.depressionfallout.com), she paints a vivid portrait of what happens to a loving relationship when depression enters the picture. Sharing essential information, compassion, and street-smart advice, Anne Sheffield tells you: What you need to know about your partner's mentalhealth and what to do about it ... for your own well-being. What experiences, behaviors, and feelings are "normal"when dealing with depressive illness. How to overcome your sense of helplessness and take charge of your life. Ways to restore your optimism, peace of mind, andsense of humor. Where to find a community of peers to offer ongoing support. Don't give up. Reach out.

Charles H. Elliott
For Dummies. Paperback. Brand New. 9.50 x 7.50 x 0.80. Brand new. Never read or owned. May have a remainder mark. 20.8 oz. Series: For Dummies (Psychology & Self Help). What do you have to be depressed about? Bet you've heard that one before. Or how about, You're depressed? Just get over it! Easier said than done, right? Or here's a favorite, They have a pill for that now, you know. -- -- -- Unfortunately, such naďve armchair psychology rarely works for someone suffering from the very real plight of depression. All it does is seek to trivialize depression and characterize depressed people as whiners who have nothing better to do than to complain about their lives. But the truth is, depression is a very real problem. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that, on any given day, 121 million people worldwide suffer from depression. And depression rates continue to increase – for example, kids exhibit depression at nearly ten times the rate of previous generations. Theories abound as to why depression rates are increasing, but regardless of the cause, this scourge continues to rob its victims of happiness, joy, and the capacity to give and receive love. -- -- -- So why -- Depression For Dummies -- , when there's already a glut of self-help books on the market peddling so-called cures and remedies for depression? Because this book satisfies the need for a straight-talking, no-nonsense resource on depression. The only agenda of -- Depression For Dummies -- is to present you with the facts on depression and explain the options for dealing with it. Rest assured, this is no infomercial in a yellow and black cover. -- -- -- Here's just a sampling of what you'll find in -- Depression For Dummies: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Demystifying the types of depression -- -- -- Discovering what goes on in the body of a depressed person -- -- -- Detecting and diagnosing depression -- -- -- Seeking help through therapy and medication -- -- -- Modifying depressed behavior and solving life's headaches -- -- -- Dealing with depression resulting from grief and relationship issues -- -- -- Cutting through the hype of alternative treatments for depression -- -- -- Moving beyond depression: Avoiding relapses and pursuing a happy life -- -- -- Top Ten lists on getting rid of a your bad mood and helping your kids and other family members out of depression -- -- -- -- -- -- So, whatever your level of depression – whether you suffer from occasional bouts or you find yourself seriously debilitated by depression – -- Depression For Dummies -- can give you the insight and tools you need to once again find enjoyment and happiness in life. All it takes is one step. “...friendly, practical and readable...” (Deirdre Saunders, Agony Aunt in ‹i›The Sun‹/i›, June 10 2005)‹p›...practical, sensible help and advice...
