About 90% of my family members suffer from depression. We can trace it back to my Great Grandfather too. It is a daily struggle to keep the "beast" at bay. It really helps to be able to talk to other family member to bring you back to reality. There is a wonderful book "Conquering the Beast Within...How I Fought Depression and Won and How You Can Too" by Cait Irwin. This book was written by a teenager and has illustrations. It is great for ALL ages. I have purchased 4 copies for other people who tell me that it really helped them. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for the reply, I will check it out. I think I will have some nephews/nieces that will need that book.
A very good book from a Christian viewpoint is Depression: A Stubborn Darkness, by Edward T. Welch.
