This book, along with the others in the First Steps out of series, punches above its weight. Covering some really important and challenging topics, the books manage to communicate a vast amount of detailed information in a style and presentation that is really accessible and draws you in. Depression is well informed, written by someone who understands depression first hand, challenging, yet continually affirming. It gives bitesized ways to move forward and to bring hope. Each book has a similar format. Sections titled ‘over to you’ help the reader to fully engage with the subject and ‘mythbusters’ highlight many of the things which people believe but aren’t true.
These books would help not just those suffering with the issue but others seeking to understand them. They would also be a helpful resource for anyone who wishes to gain deeper insight without extensive reading.
