Inhaltsangabe:

The Anti-Depressant Book was written up in the Washington Post, the review can be read here: https://tinyurl.com/WashingtonPost2018. It is written specifically for teenagers and young adults who are struggling with depression. It offers a drug-free, step-by-step solution to feeling happier quickly and developing healthy habits that will prevent relapse. This book covers the basics of cognitive behavioral therapy for emerging from adolescent depression and staying well. It is filled with paradox, written as if Dr. Towery were having a conversation directly with you, and is neither "preachy" nor dry. There are also brief sections for parents who are struggling with a depressed child. The book was written as a response to the suicide clusters in Palo Alto to help prevent as many suicides as possible. The Anti-Depressant Book can be used as an adjunct to traditional therapy, or by itself, particularly for those with mild to moderate depression. It is irreverent, fun to read, and practical.
