Nature of Depression

How to Understand and Cure the Symptoms, Book 1

By: Anthony Glenn

Narrated by: Casey Bassett

Are you depressed, or are you suffering from depression?

Everybody feels low sometimes. However, that's not the same as suffering from depression. Unlike normal sadness, clinical depression lasts for weeks, months, or even years. If your life has permanently changed and you feel like you have lost yourself somewhere along the way, it may be depression. Depression is a real illness. It has to be treated correctly.

Before diagnosing depression, it's important to rule out any other possible reasons for these symptoms. Some physical illnesses, such as thyroid problems, brain tumor, and Parkinson's disease, create a similar picture. That's why your doctor will want to check your physical health first. Once you are diagnosed with depression, the treatment can begin.

Although things may seem utterly black to you, you should know that you are not alone. Depression is one of the most common mental illnesses in the world. Fortunately, it's also one of the most treatable conditions. There is hope, the healing is possible, and you don't have to live with depression forever.

In this depression workbook for adults, we will define several types of depression, such as major depression, persistent depressive disorder, psychotic depression, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, and bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder is not actually a form of depression, but it's included here because a person who suffers from it experience alternates between episodes of mania, extremely high mood, and depression.

You will discover:

• Who can suffer from depression
• Why does depression happen
• How does depression affect your life
• What depression feels like
• What is a treatment of depression, including psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy
• The ways of self-help for depression
• How to never become depressed
• Prevention
• And much more

So, don't isolate yourself and suffer in silence. Reach out for help because healing is possible. You don't have to live in a cage of pain for the rest of your life. You can get your life back, and this audiobook is here to help you. This world is a magical place. You just forgot it. What you need is to remind yourself of that. Don't give up.

So, sit back and relax.

Helpful.

If you have ever struggled with depression, you will see yourself in this book. Great audiobook, very insightful and helpful for all who suffer from depression or for those trying to help others.

A great to find basic help.

A great to find basic help. Language is very simple to understand. I liked this audiobook.

Such practical advice.

Get to the core of the problem. Tell it like it really is. Acknowledge the issues you have, and we all have them. This audiobook has a lot of help for people that are not necessarily struggling with depression, but it can be as a basic educational resource for everyone who wants to know more about depression — giving a lot of practical instruction. Everyone can benefit from such practical advice.

A very important and helpful book.

This audio book helped me. It contains lots of real information that you can immediately use, and it is presented clearly and simply -- easy to access. These things are crucial when you are depressed and trying to find help. I am highly educated and understand many things, but in a recent too-long episode of deep clinical depression, I found it hard even to read at all, so I listened to the audio version. And this book really gave me some help. So I highly recommend it. If you're depressed yourself, just read one page at a time. If you're reading it for someone else, it will really give you things you can use.

While listening to it,

While listening to it, I didn't know that others felt the way I was feeling, but it was all right there in the book. An extremely well-written and narrated audiobook with lots of things to consider if you are depressed yourself. It made me feel very well understood and it never felt like a slap in the face. It also has an excellent section for friends, family, and significant others to understand and help aid depressed people. If you're struggling right now just try to listen/read as you can, and I think you'll definitely get something out of it.

Just the right amount of information!

Just the right amount of information! Without getting into too much medical or psychological jargon, while still giving insight from these discipline's understanding of depression, Glenn provides valuable information about the in's and out's of depression. If you are wanting to understand more about the causes and day to day effects of living with depression, you will not be disappointed by this audiobook. I will definitely be recommending it to anyone who comes my way seeking help with depression or to try and understand a loved one better.

It is great listening with good explanations.

"Nature of Depression" is the same useful audiobook as "Nature of Panic Attack," my previous book by A. Glenn I started with. It is great listening with good explanations. I have already started feeling better one week into starting some of the practices from the "Nature of Panic Attack." I didn't know about such simple technics as "breathing into/out of the bag" and simple "chewing gum method," that could be used as a practice to change the focus and decrease anxiety. I found "Nature of Depression" easy to read and listen, well written/narrated and organized, and not full of the hype that is found in many self-help books. But most of all, I found it incredibly relevant and useful, lots of well researched/evidenced methods to decrease susceptibility to depression were included in this book. "Nature of Depression" is an excellent audiobook for sufferers from depression and their family members to understand the feelings, processes of healing, and understandings that everything will be just okay. Follow the treatment, give some time, and you will be back into normal life! I can recommend it!

Great resource.

Great resource. I listen to it in my car, and I always give me a feeling that everything will be OK with my condition. Excellent! Was very helpful to me!

Good method.

The author starts by making us understand what depression and the methods to cure. The focus of the book is to provide knowledge for overcoming depression by making small steps. I have suffered from depression for a long time, and I am always looking for new ways to cope with my depression. I have read and listened to other books on depression, but this one is the only one that is actually making a noticeable and positive change in my life. I really hope this audiobook has widely listened and many people benefit from it.

This audiobook is worth sharing, and I will surely recommend this to my family and friends.

Its absolutely fantastic and very detailed.

So many good tips whether you're trying to help yourself or another person. It explains how you can improve your situation besides using medication.
While listening to it, I didn't know that others felt the way I was feeling, but it was all right there in the book. I have come to have a greater knowledge of what I'm going through and that there is hope. I would highly recommend this book...its absolutely fantastic and very detailed.
