Defeating Depression: One Man's Fight to Find Joy

By Stacy Jay and Stacy J Brimhall

In a personal, extremely insightful way, Stacy Jay describes how he dealt with the horrors of his own genetic and situational mental illness. He tells, in particular, how he discovered The Barbed Wire Solution and how the companion thought: Giving Up is Not an Option, became his motto. Sadly, when it comes to mental illness, giving up is often synonymous with suicide. Determined to change that patter-even if it means saving only one-Stacy shares his own poignant story and his personal journey so others who are suffering the ravages of mental illness may discover the power of The Barbed Wire Solution and they, too, may decide that giving up is not an option. Sharing four mind ingredients that allowed him to battle back, Stacy provides others with the means to not only survive mental illness, but to experience true joy. The Barbed Wire Solution offers hope and understanding for the loved ones of those who suffer as well. Stacy Jay is a dedicated husband to his wife of 27 years. Together, they have raised five grown children, all who are responsible, happy and well-adjusted. Stacy is also a successful Arizona business owner, known for his keen sense of what makes a good deal and his ability to make sound business decisions. He has made significant contributions to his community and church, as well-and has done all of this, while battling the constant onslaught of mental illness with its potentially debilitating depression and anxiety. Perhaps Stacy's greatest success-other than his family he is so proud of-is his dogged determination to never give up, along with his willingness to now pass on his story and the keys he has discovered. His desire is that The Barbed Wire Solution will help others survive rather than succumb to mental illness. Book jacket.
