I won't lie, I have major depression disorder. Through medicine and pro-active steps in therapy things are slowly getting back to a certain semblance of order. My partner on the other hand has had long standing depression, and while medicine helps sometimes he gets into a big funk. Heaven forbid if we both are having one of those days, and trying to do anything becomes nearly impossible. Sometimes we forget how to talk to each other without sending one of us over the edge and just calling it a day.Amber Rain really hits home describing the different types of depression and dispelling myths surrounding depression. I can't tell you how sad it makes me when someone tells me I should just get over myself, and that I am not depressed. She provides great advice and great things to say to people who you know are depressed. Theses simple phrase can really show the other person you care, and that you understand they have something big in their life.While there is no "cure" for depression, books like this really help everyone.
