According to figures from the World Health Organization, around 100 million people are suffering from depression at any one time - and this figure seems to be rising. Yet few people know how to start helping themselves or obtain help from a therapist. Overcoming Depression is an accessible, enlightening and constructive guide to the problem. Exceptional for its broad scope, it bridges the gap between standard professional viewpoints, the alternative therapies and practical everyday wisdom, discussing an unusually wide spectrum of therapies and methods of self-help. Overcoming Depression is divided into four parts. It starts by looking at all the different levels of depression, going beyond recognized clinical definitions. It goes on to describe how life's events or non-events, a person's past history and personality as well as physical factors such as illness can all affect his or her mental state. The third part of the book looks at the many ways of overcoming depression, from simple self-help methods to different forms of psychotherapy and, for very severe depression, the physical treatments.
