Noonday Demon is an atlas of depression.it thoroughly goes thru what it feels like,talks about the meds used,told from the perspective of the author whos had major anxiety,depression,and others who have been there.Its so informative,I checked it out from library.I think I'll read it again.Darkness Visible is by william styron who fought depression as well,and is very good at describing it.His daughter recently wrote a book about what he was like,I believe its called Reading My Father,I loved that as well.This is another thing I do, before bed,I always have a good book to read!

The words are purposes.
The words are maps.
I came to see the damage that was done
and the treasures that prevail..." Adrienne Rich
