I have never felt a large amount of depression for a long time but I have gone into funks that have lasted 2-3 weeks before and it's absolutely terrible and there's nothing you can do to shake yourself out of it. <br /><br />I am going to request this book from my library right now!!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-55427497314077013642009-12-30T18:27:26.456-06:002009-12-30T18:27:26.456-06:00Lisa, I loved this review.

However, there were so many aspects that you made me consider more, and I feel like I know you so much better after reading it. I am glad you are in a better place right now. I think your honesty makes you a great blogger!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03964218970797460632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-37314727622504664662009-12-30T14:08:09.531-06:002009-12-30T14:08:09.531-06:00Ok, I most definitely want to read that book now! ...Ok, I most definitely want to read that book now!

At first i got really excited because I just gave this book to my Gram for Christmas (she enjoys Sue Monk Kidd) and then was curious as to what you had to say about it. <br /><br />The best books are often ones that speak to us and our lives at a particular time in our lives, no less. I'm sorry that you battled depression (I had no idea) but I thank you for trusting your readers with this information and for opening up a new piece of yourself to us.Norahttp://walkingwithnora.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-69910651712431461462009-12-30T08:54:36.917-06:002009-12-30T08:54:36.917-06:00Brave, courageous, strong!

I am so happy to see that you have found the right place in life and am not in depression anymore!!<br /><br />I agree with your thoughts on the whole stigma of depression.

Your review wouldn't be half as good without the truth included.

Thanks so much for sharing that! I have a friend who I think hasn't realized what you said - that her worth is not based on her job or her relationship status. Depression can be really hard and I'm so glad you have not only "kicked it" but can talk about it as well. <br /><br />I'm putting this book on my to-read list - and I want to reach through the screen and give you a big hug! :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497016301321352544noreply@blogger.com
