An Unquiet Mind : A Memoir of Moods and Madness
by
Kay Redfield Jamison
In Touched with Fire, Kay Redfield Jamison, a psychiatrist, turned a mirror on
the creativity so often associated with mental illness. In this book she turns
that mirror on herself. With breathtaking honesty she tells of her own manic
depression, the bitter costs of her illness, and its paradoxical benefits:
"There is a particular kind of pain, elation, loneliness and terror involved in
this kind of madness.... It will never end, for madness carves its own reality."

"Suicide is a particularly awful way to die: the mental suffering leading up to
it is usually prolonged, intense, and unpalliated," writes Kay Redfield

Undoing Depression: What Therapy Doesn't Teach You and Medication Can't Give You
by
Richard O'Connor
For some people, depression has been a part of their experience for so long
that they've begun to believe it's what they are. They become experts at
"doing" depression--hiding it, working around it, even achieving great things
(but at the price of great struggle, and little satisfaction). In this book,
psychotherapist Richard O'Conner shows us how to "undo" depression, by
replacing depressive patterns of thinking, relating, and behaving with a new
and more effective set of skills.

I don't want to talk about it: Overcoming the secret legacy of male depression
by
Terrence Real
Twenty years of experience treating men and their families has convinced
psychotherapist Terrence Real that depression is a silent epidemic in men --
that men hide their condition from family, friends, and themselves to avoid the
stigma of depression's "un-manliness." Problems that we think of as typically
male -- difficulty with intimacy, workaholism, alcoholism, abusive behavior,
and rage-are really attempts to escape depression. And these escape attempts
only hurt the people men love and pass their condition on to their children.
