Depression: What's That?
()
About this ebook
How do you treat your feelings? Do you take care of them with kindness and understanding, or do you reject or fear them? Depression feeds on the resistance we have toward negative feelings. It’s only when we see ALL of our emotions with a neutral eye that we can move beyond them and experience more joy.
DEPRESSION:What's That?

Dedication
To all who read this book, I salute you for wanting to change the way you live for the better and for having the courage to be who you are as fully as possible.
To all who encourage me everyday to keep going and sharing their lives with me, family small and large. But most of all the little angel who came to teach me – Alexa, my granddaughter.
"Everybody hurts sometimes, and when we do it is nice to have Derek O’Neill around. His excellent little books on the things that get us, (fear, anger, depression, victimhood, mental blocks) allow us to find our way safely through our psychological minefields and arrive safely at the other side. Read them when you need them."
- Paul Perry, Author of the New York Times Bestseller Evidence of the Afterlife
