Customer Reviews

This is SUCH a good book and is so well written!!

It portrays the concept of depression and mental illnesses as what they deserve to be recognized as, not just as something that goes away with time. This book is revolutionary and has changed my life. I read it start to finish in one day; it was THAT good!
