Description
The Sheldon Short Guide to Depression by Tim Cantopher provides an in-depth understanding of this complex physical illness. According to the author, depression is caused by malfunction of the limbic system, which regulates various bodily functions such as sleep-waking cycles, temperature control and hormone balance.
When the limbic system becomes overloaded, often due to prolonged stress, it can lead to a depressive episode. This book explains how to tackle this debilitating condition, covering topics such as what triggers episodes, recovery strategies, treatments and skills for managing specific areas like relaxation and problem-solving.
With clear and concise information, The Sheldon Short Guide to Depression offers practical advice for those affected by depression, helping them understand the condition and find ways to manage it.
