Cognitive therapy offers a new and innovative way to prevent the relapse of depression.

The authors of this book have offered a new response to a major health problem. They offer a brief group treatment for preventing depressive relapse and the patients are welcoming the great news. The remedy for this problem has been a long time coming. With this new method of treatment therapy, patients suffering with depression can begin to have hope for their future knowing there is a prevention for the relapse of depression. The therapy goes beyond the cognitive treatment and teaches the patients how to substitute positive thoughts for negative ones. With cognitive therapy the doctor can work with at as many as thirty patients at one time in their group therapy which makes it very cost effective compared to individual therapy. The book teaches the therapist exactly what they need to do to help the patients and it seems to be working. Many therapists are beginning to use the book in order to help their patients. The book teaches an eight session program that has proven to speed the recovery of depression and prevent relapse. The book contains vital tools for doctors, nurses, or any professional who is involved with patients with depression, to help their patients by preventing the reoccurance of depression through cognitive therapy. There are over twenty three million adults suffering from depression of some form and many are not aware of it or they have not tried to get help. There are many medications and therapy available for the different symptoms and different types of depression. No one should be ashamed if they have depression. It is thought to be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and not through something the victim did or is doing in their lives. It may have been passed down from generation to generation. When certain events happen in one’s life (for instance the loss of a loved one, childbirth, menopause, etc.) it triggers the onset of depression. If you have symptoms of depression you should seek the help of your doctor or other professional. Depression can be controlled but not if you do not get the proper treatment. Depression involves not only the victim but the family and friends surrounding them. When someone is depressed, it hurts everyone. So the sooner you seek help, the better.
