This book offers solutions, not hype, for those who suffer from depression. The "Human Givens" approach is not well-known in America, and I think it's a safe assumption that the reason for that is that the pharmaceutical industry here has a lot to lose should this approach become the norm rather than the exception.



I have suffered from debilitating depression at times in my life and have gone the RX route. After suffering horrible withdrawal symptoms coming off my last anti-depressant, I decided to try to see if I could manage my symptoms without drugs. As with anything, it might not work for everyone, even as anti-depressants don't work for everyone. But it is a very sensible approach and well worth your time to read.



I know that reading this book has helped me see a way out of depression without drugs. I only wish it were more widely available.
