Depression or Spiritual Dark Night!

The author shares experiences of a bout or depression or is it the dark night of the soul (spiritually speaking). It was good to read of someone's experiences who were similar to mine. I'm a Christian dealing with depression over childhood issues and at the same time experiencing spiritual abandonment. The author shares the struggle between knowing in our heads and from our past that God is present but the emotional and internal feeling that God is no longer around. This book is the only contemporary writing that I have found on what early Christian mystics (John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila) described as the dark night of the soul. After sharing his experience the author analyzes the theological/spiritual conclusions he has drawn from the experience. Some of his theology is creative, interesting but not mainstream fundamental beliefs.

offers REAL hope for those struggling with depression

This is an incredible book about depression from someone who has experienced it. I personally was encouraged by the author's honesty about his personal struggle with depression and what he learned from it. I have recently heard that this book is out of print which frustrates me. During my struggle with depression it was the only book that made me feel like I was not at the end of my rope but instead gave me hope!!
