Depressive Illness: The Curse of the Strong

Helping Christians Cope with Mental Health Problems

About this book

If you have depression, don't blame yourself or wonder if you and God have somehow failed each other. Mental and emotional health issues strike the strongest of us. King David led a nation – yet wrote some of the Bible's bleakest laments. Naomi experienced deep emptiness and bitterness following devastating loss, and Job longed for a death that would not come.

This book explains what happens in stress-related depressive illness, and presents effective ways to get better and stay well.

Topics include:

what to do when you become ill
medication
psychotherapy
recovery
making lifestyle changes
problem-solving skills, including mindfulness

Don't struggle on alone – read this book instead!

'People affected by depression tell me this is the most powerful and helpful book ever written about the topic. I keep meeting people who say this book changed their lives.'
Jeremy Vine, BBC Radio 2

'This book should be read by everybody . . . It offers invaluable insight into depression and promotes a level of self-awareness, which . . . could keep many of us a lot healthier.'
Depression Alliance
