Depression and anxiety have become major mental health concerns of modern society. Shockingly, depression and anxiety are some of the least treated mental disorders. This is because people shy away from treatment stating various reasons. Victims usually say, that they need some time so that they can get out of the clutches by themself, they don’t wanna take the pills, they are embarrassed to speak about it with the doctors. Whatever the reasons may be, depression and anxiety can stop people from doing their day to day activities or even lead to making fatal decisions if untreated at most cases.
While treatment is the best option to get out of depression and prevent anxiety, reading some self-help books can be your trump card to beat depression and anxiety without any treatment. Even if it doesn’t help you get rid of them, it will be the best guide post treatment so that you don’t go into depression again.
One of the best books which I would suggest is “The subtle art of not giving a fuck” authored by Mark Manson. The book stands apart from other motivational books by emphasizing us to accept our failure and limits while guiding how to live with them. This book addresses the depression and anxiety problems. Also the circumstantial reasons for falling prey to those disorders are discussed. Most victims when they read this book would be surprised by getting to know the long story before they ended up with depression and anxiety. The author also talks about the modern societal problems that are misleading people and making them more prone to anxiety and depression.
This book is not limited to certain people as the author try to articulate the meaning of life while addressing the issues. If you are person who don’t prefer motivational books but want the message, then this book is for you.
