"If you are trying to understand how depression affects men, you need to read this book!" -AMAZON REVIEWER Recently, Christopher Scott Downing documented his failed attempt to overcome depression without doctors, therapists, or medication.

Finally, it's a wake up call to men -and their loved ones- who misunderstand depression or are commonly resistant "to talk about it." "The book is exceptionally well-crafted and compelling." -onlinebookclub.com Written in a strong, concise style directed towards other men, this memoir is beginning new discussions about Major Depressive Disorder by exploring these questions: What do men experience under depression? How does depression manifest in men uniquely? Why do many men refuse help with this treatable disease? "About as funny as a swift pop to the mouth. Which, you gotta admit, under the right circumstance can be pretty damn funny." -GOODREADS REVIEWER Veteran psychologist Steven J. Hanley, Ph.D. provides the wonderful, thought-provoking foreword.
