The Joys of Dedpression: 21 Ways To Be Glad That You're Sad

By Tom McBride

This book will help you live out the greatest paradox of the human predicament: that pain is the best proof that you are still alive. Thus, there is a certain joy in depression, and there are reasons to be glad THAT you are sad. Here you will find 21 ways to be more thankful for life itself. You will learn that the only true meaning of life is that you aren't yet dead. You will find that your sheer existence is not as routine an event as you thought it was. You'll find insights about the affirming fact that you ARE alive--from Shakespeare, Judy Garland, Zorba the Greek, and many others in an unusual cast of "philosophers." This is not a book that denies the fact of pain, nor does it argue that you can control the future by so-called positive thinking. Rather, it is a book that shows you how to find blessings in the present, in your own lungs, your own perceptions, and in all the things that, even in sadness, don't ache at all.
