    Additional Reading on Depression

    • Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy, by D.D. Burns. New York, NY: Avon Books, 1980. (Considered by many to be the best self-help book on depression; is based on cognitive therapy practices, has lots of practical advice for coping with depression.)

    • Touched with Fire: Manic-Depressive Illness and the Artistic Temperament, by K.R. Jamison. New York, NY: The Free Press, 1993. (An irresistible book on the interaction of manic-depressive illness and the artistic temperament.)

    • Darkness Visible: A Memoir of Madness, by W. Styron. New York, NY: Random House, 1990. (A well-known author's autobiographical account of his own severe depression and his recovery; short and right to the point.)

    • Overcoming Depression (revised), by D. Papolos & J. Papolos. New York, NY: Harper Collins, 1997. (A practical guide to the diagnosis and treatment of depression and manic-depression.)
