5 stars
A helpful, comprehensive guide
I was looking forward to reading this book because I have
had bouts of stress. Who isn’t stressed out in this crazy world we live in?
The author starts off by explaining different types of
depression and stress, causes of depression and stress, how these affect our
bodies, followed by techniques for coping with these mental health problems.
She also outlines treatments like medication, seeing a therapist, and other options
like alternative therapies. It’s important to note that severe depression
should be treated by a licensed professional.
What I found interesting is how much a healthy diet plays
an important part in our mental well-being. I didn’t connect these before now.
There were many useful techniques like self-hypnosis and
relaxation for coping on a daily basis. I found these useful for my own stress.
Mindfulness was also something I’d heard about, but I never fully understood it
until now.
Overall, this is a complete guide to recognizing
depression and stress and then seeking the help you need. There are also some
helpful resources listed at the end of this book. Highly recommended.
