Is “Black Dog” nipping at your heels? Positive help for depression is at hand.

Is "Black Dog" nipping at your heels? Positive help for depression is at hand.

Spring is well and truly here. The sun is shining and the daffodils are providing a much needed dose of colour. For suffers of winter depression and SAD spirits are rising but for some people their depression and what is often described as bouts of "Black Dog" will not be so easily lifted.

If, despite the sunshine your spirits and mood are low then take a look at this book by author Sally Brampton: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shoot-Damn-Dog-Memoir-Depression/dp/0747572453/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1331297965&sr=1-1. It is a book that saw me laughing and crying as I read it. It is an uplifting read and a story of hope for all those people who find "Black Dog" nipping at their heels.

It would be trite to say that this book will solve all your problems but it certainly does give an honest appraisal of how to help yourself through bouts of depression that seem almost too painful to bear.

If, having read this book, you feel you need further help to finally kill off "Black Dog" and move on with your life then do please contact us here at Stress and Anxiety Counselling and together we will work on strategies that will help you manage your depression better and hopefully banish "black dog"!

Stress and Anxiety counsellors are here to help you work through your depression and the stress and anxiety that comes from not being able to cope with your symptoms. Call us on 020 89541593 to learn more about our counselling services and book an appointment.
