Depression: The Way Out

Description This book begins with an explanation of the brain and how it works, with an understandable description of depression in its various forms. In successive chapters, explanations in laymen?s terms are given that reveal it to be more than a mental illness; its many causes are identified, along with the effects it has on the human psyche, and the important role nutrition and lifestyle play in managing and overcoming this malady. Dr. Nedley next examines the role of herbs and medications in the treatment of depression: their benefits, side effects, and the best way to successfully discontinue them. Considerable space is also devoted to the role stress plays in causing depression and to adequately control it.
