Can depression and anxiety be cured through self-help and therapy? My journey suggests otherwise. What started with life changing insomnia, soon grew heads causing an ongoing battle to rid myself of mental health issues. The book is substantially weighted on my personal experience with western medicine - particularly antidepressants, of which I have tried five to date. I cover most of the issues many experience whilst taking this form of medication, such as lethargy, weight gain and sexual dysfunction. The book also delves into other forms of treatment such as talking therapies and complimentary therapies, as well as other forms of self-help. Serotonin, Not Self-Help bridges the gaps between these different approaches. Other issues such as inflammation, in particular autoimmune conditions, bring up other theories as to why depressive illnesses may present themselves, and also what treatments in that respect have been of great help. A significant amount of research regarding mental health has been conducted, and some scientific studies are cited throughout. We all have a lot of questions regarding mental health and what the best treatments are - this book answers them.
