Happiness is a Choice: A Manual on the Symptoms, Causes, and Cures of Depression

HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE A MANUAL ON THE SYMPTOMS, CAUSES, AND CURES OF DEPRESSION Happiness Is A Choice will enable thousands to establish a sense of well being and conquer the depression that too frequently assaults the human spirit. Whether depression is felt mildly or acutely, temporarily or persistently, it strikes just about everyone, and Christians are not exempted. Many believers ask, "Why should I feel down since others tell me that my personal Christian faith should give me a permanent sense of joy and spiritual assurance?" Other questions soon follow: What is depression? What brings it on? Why would a Christian commit suicide? Is the emotional make-up of the human personality inherited? Does depression usually indicate a spiritual problem? Should antidepressant drugs ever be used? What hope for conquering depression do the Bible and Christianity offer? What medical or counseling resources are available to those chronically depressed? The answer to these and other perplexing questions are competently presented by Paul D. Meier and Frank B. Minirth, who have combined their professional training, counseling experience, and biblical knowledge in this volume. It's an easy-to-follow guidebook for families as well as a convenient resource volume for pastors, counselors, and family physicians. Beyond descriptions of depression and its causes, symptoms, and treatments, Meier and Minirth offer basic steps and guidelines for recovering and sustaining a happy, fulfilling, and meaningful life.
