Helping us to understand what is important in our lives, why we act and feel the way we do, guiding us to the point where we can accept and love ourselves for who we really are, Dr Rowe sees depression as a defence, as a place to where people retreat to. She shows that depression is not an illness or mental disorder, but a defence against pain and fear which we can use whenever we suffer a disaster and discover that life is not what we thought it was. By understanding how we have interpreted events in our life we can choose to change our interpretations and thus create for ourselves a happier, more fulfilling life Depression: The Way Out Of Your Prison is a proven self help guide as well as an invaluable source book that enables professional helpers to enter the world of the depressed person. Its clear account of the feelings and thought processes of those suffering from depression will enable them to lead more people out of their prisonsfor ever.
