I read the preview twice - Demystifying Depression
⭐⭐⭐⭐
I'm an Olive member, so I only have the intro and Chapter 1. I read it twice, and the second time I cried.
The "just sad" part got me. For a long time I told myself I was tired. Stressed. Going through a season. I was still getting up, still getting things done, still looking fine to everyone. Who was I going to tell? Nobody asked, and I didn't say. Then I got out a notebook and answered the reflection questions. On the first page I wrote, "I'm not just tired." I had never written that down or said it out loud. I sat there and let it be true. It's the first time in a long time I've taken what I'm feeling seriously. The word depression meaning "something pressing down," not something I am, is on a sticky note on my mirror now. I read it every morning. Something is pressing on me. That's not who I am.
One star off because the preview ends after Chapter 1. She brings up spiritual warfare early on but saves it for Chapter 10, and I want to see how she handles it. My faith is bruised right now, and I'm being honest about that. I'll get the full book when I can.
