Inhaltsangabe

The first book to unmask the hidden face of depression. If you look fine on the outside but don't feel fine on the inside, learn five tools to break the cycle of High Functioning Depression and experience more joy in your life.
 

Are you going through a period in your life when things feel “off”? Do you struggle to find joy in happy moments? Are you walking around feeling numb? Do you feel restless when you aren’t busy or empty when you are sitting still? We all know what can’t-get-out-of-bed depression looks like. But there’s another, lesser-known side of depression that is hidden.

Those of us with High-Functioning Depression (HFD) usually don’t act the way we think a depressed person might. On the surface, we seem fine: We are succeeding at work, pulling our weight at home, and carrying on with our typical social life. Yet behind that mask of productivity we are barely surviving, and certainly not thriving. And we may have no idea why, or what to do about it.

In High Functioning, Dr. Judith Joseph draws on original research, client cases, and her own personal struggles with HFD to demystify this poorly understood condition. Her five simple tools—the Five V’s—will help you understand the science of your happiness and empower you to reclaim your life and joy.

•Validation: Acknowledge and accept your emotions about past traumas and present pain

•Venting: Let out the frustrations and anxious energy bottled up inside

•Values: Identify the purpose and priorities that matter most

•Vitals: Slow down to listen to your brain and body and monitor the six vital signs of emotional functioning

•Vision: Plan for and celebrate successes, milestones, and everyday joy

By following the Five V’s, we can put an end to self-sacrificing and self-sabotaging, calm our inner turmoil, and go from merely functioning to truly living.
