Excellent book! July 26, 2008 B. Butler (Pennsylvania) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think absolutely anyone could benefit from reading this book. It makes clear the link between our thoughts and our moods and gives concrete methods for conciously changing the thought patterns that lead to self-destructive feelings and actions. And unlike many self-help books, it isn't dry or preachy; it's easy to read and well worth the time. If you're depressed, PLEASE buy this book - it WILL help! If you're not depressed, buy this book - it WILL improve your life!
Feeling good by David Burns July 23, 2008 Anne (Western Australia) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I feel that David Burns has been able to put a good edge of stability on my day to day living. Stuff that I think I might have worked out myself but Burns deals with in a simple direct way and how to cope with them whatever youve decided your problems are; that one has a procrastination issues, surviving negative people and situations, you know...just dealing with life in general. He shows how to cope with situations either by writing activities or by your own mind revision. IE. pge 138, dealing with critisism. 1.Always speak the truth. it might be biazarre and weird truth but the attacker will run out of steam and it will lose their grip on you. The book is focused on depressed people. I dont think I am actually 'depressed' but certainly had my issues and one of these is dealing with antidepressants in the past and this book has a great section on the treatment of antidepressants.
Feeling Good June 16, 2008 Damian P. Alagia 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is one of the best books written for individuals suffering from anxiety and depression who are looking for tools that the can use daily to help themselves feel better. The author, who is a psychiatrist, is a pioneer in the field of cognitive behavioral therapy. His premise is simple..." the way you think determines the way you feel" And he is right. For the individual who is willing to put the time in and work through this book the rewards will be great. I have recommended this book to a number of my patients Dr Alagia
It's easy to see why this is the #1 prescribed book June 9, 2008 Nicole (Marietta, GA) I've read several "self help" books on depression and I got the most out of this one, by far. I think maybe because it was so easy to identify with much of what he said. Like when he is talking about the different types of distorted thinking, "Hey, I do that!" His suggestions are simple and easy to follow. He admits to thoughts you may have as you read and responds to them. Just overall, I really felt like this book spoke to me more than any of the others that I have read.
