This is a insightful guide into depression, providing an informative and well-researched book.

Exploring case files and therapy sessions with suffers of the condition, we see how differently depression manifests in different people, and it also depunks a lot of myths surrounding the conditions, while looking into other mental disorders as well.

While this was informative, it was a little tiresome as it could get a bit repetitive. Other than that, I highly recommend it for people looking to educate themselves on the depression.

This book was different than I expected, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I was anticipating a description of the various ways that depressive illness can manifest in different people. This book delves into the different depressions that are already well-known, such as post-partum and bipolar. American readers will also need to get used to the British slang, which I thought added color to the text!
