Depression An Emotion Not A Disease ebook

Is there any end to the cycle of relapse, hospitalisation and medication for sufferers of depression? Drs Michael Corry and vÅine Tubridy believe there is. &newpara;In this innovative book, Corry and Tubridy present a revolutionary new perspective in which they assert that depression is an emotion, just like fear, anger or love, that can be consciously influenced, rather than a disease which can only be suffered. &newpara;This theory has enormous implications for the traditional treatment of depression. It puts the sufferer back at the centre of a more individual and tailored approach to healing and raises serious questions about the medical community's focus on medication as a primary treatment. &newpara;'Liberating and even empowering for some sufferers of depression who previously perceived their illness to be a brain chemistry disorder, the cure of which was beyond their control' &newpara;– The Irish Times
