In hindsight, this was actually a better book than I originally gave it credit for. The author can definitely empathize with the issue she's addressing, and she does so with both humor and authority.
Unfortunately, I attempted to read it at the height (or depth, depending on how you look at it) of severe depression--and it was very difficult for me to get through at that time. I recognize now that my perceptions and processing were every bit as 'depressed' as my mood, which pretty well inhibited my absorption/application of the book. I think everyone wants a 'this is how you fix it and feel normal again' guide, but ultimately it's likely to be more helpful to those who are trying to help and support someone they know who's struggling with depression.
