A powerful memoir about one woman"s 20-year journey through Depression ... and more ... Envy Louis, now in her 70s, takes an unflinching look at Clinical Depression, emphasizing the necessity of seeking "serious help" for the condition. She believes she"s only back with her husband-and alive-due to the care of an excellent and selfless psychiatrist. Brought up under unusual circumstances, she experienced: • The dangers of being raised by parents who both suffered from untreated (or ineffectively treated) mental health issues • The havoc and isolation caused by multiple moves • The hazards of being the target of beatings from her own mother • The loneliness and confusion of being 14 years old and searching for her father on Vancouver"s Downtown Eastside Key life skills are stressed-set realistic goals, look forward to things and forgive those you love-and the story ends on a note of celebration.
