Sample Book Insights:
#1 When I first met with Karen, she was 32 years old. She had been separated from her husband, Gary, for more than a year. Their marriage had started off badly four years before - Gary was domineering, dismissive of Karen’s feelings, and critical of almost everything she did.
#2 Karen had lost interest in other things, too. She had been eating junk food because it made her feel a little better for a few minutes, but she was gaining weight and losing control of her eating.
#3 Depression is a worldwide epidemic that empties lives of meaning and joy. It can even kill. It is not uncommon for people to have depressive symptoms without having a formal diagnosis.
#4 We have become more and more self-absorbed and less connected with one another. Our culture is marked by less and less of a sense of community. We have become more and more depressed, and this is because our culture is filled with unrealistic expectations and narcissism.
