Description
How do you work your way out of a depression? What steps can we all take to be happier? For most, intensive treatment isn’t what we are searching for. Clinical psychologist Seth Swirsky takes a nontraditional approach to help readers deal with depression through art, activities, creativity, and positivity. With infographics, illustrations, quotes, and lists, Swirsky explores unique techniques he’s used with his patients and in his own life.

I loved this book. The artistic twist with all the watercolour pictures and captions was brilliant, very uplifting and inspiring. I loved all the simple but effective ideas, and the clear but short chapters. The approach was gentle but empowering. It was such a refreshing read and I have been inspired to dig out my watercolour set and colour up my life. Thank you for excellent book.
I needed this! I wanted something that would help with my anxiety and depression and this really helped! It gave me things to do that I never thought of before and that I know would be good to try.
Anything that helps me is something I want to read.
I was a bit apprehensive about reading this since we all know self-help books - they're written by people who seem to have it together already and therefore it can all sound very patronising.
No need to worry though, I really liked 21 Ways to a Happier Depression! It gave me a lot of useful ideas about managing my depression and anxiety, from dealing with a panic attack to painting something as an outlet for all those feelings trapped inside.
The beautiful artwork goes well with the book's message - staying calm and finding that inner peace that's so elusive to those of us who often overthink the small things until we're sick with worry.
Would recommend :)
