The classic bestseller... completely revised and updated for the new millennium! Over 500,000 copies in print! The Secret Strength of Depression, first published in 1974, has long been acclaimed as one of the clearest and most helpful books on the subject of depression.

It has been expanded to include reports of the myths and miracles of the new antidepressants, the most recent findings on the biology of depression in women, and new information on depression in adolescents and the elderly. In these uncertain times, more and more Americans are struggling with feelings of depression and anxiety. According to Dr. Flach, depression is a natural, healthy reaction to stressful events or major lifestyle changes such as marriage, divorce, career changes, or retirement. By acknowledging that depression can be an adaptive response to certain situations, Dr. Flach helps readers to tap their creative energies to turn depression into a positive force for personal growth.
