Suddenly you are all alone in an endless, black tunnel with a category 5 hurricane bearing relentlessly down on you. Then out of nowhere comes that intense outburst in your stomach, rapidly explodes into your heart, and unmercifully assaults your brain with nearly unbearable sensations--it pauses, then seconds later unleashes another. This hurricane is clinical depression. During just the past year, over 200 million Americans have experienced depression, and depression is the fourth leading cause of death of young adults. The purpose of this succinct and explicit book is to speak to the reader about both the appalling nature of clinical depression and pathways through which one can navigate depression. There is hope! So, take an unbelievable ride with me as I speak about depressive feelings, not just symptoms, and offer A Road Back To You.
