Oh wow. Lifetime of depression, medicated for about 2 years now. I've not heard of this book - thank you. I am excited to read it!

it's a very good book for attempting to understand, verbalize and grasp depression. and i love the forays into literature and history. but also just the audacity of the attempt to understand it

The thing I remember most strongly from that book is his saying that love, meds, and talk therapy all work on depression and love is the most important of the three.
