The informational book, 7-Day Depression Challenge: Deal with Your Depression in Seven Days by Challenge Self, is aimed towards anyone suffering from depression. The focus of the book is to follow the step by step guides by the author, including food and diet, meditation and mind therapy, sunlight and laughter, lifestyle practices and other techniques that will ultimately help sufferers turn their ailment around. As a reader, I felt the author was very thoughtful about the issue of depression, and has articulated a plan for those dealing with depression that is both realistic and achievable through the book’s instructions and information. What the author does well is provide a strong reminder of the importance of a balanced lifestyle and ensuring that focusing on depression as a condition is a multi-faceted approach and needs complete commitment.
The promise of 7-Day Depression Challenge: Deal with Your Depression in Seven Days also does not propose a miracle cure, and the author quickly states that all situations are unique. What Challenge Self, the author, does is help the reader ‘deal’ with depression quickly in a short period of time, but reinforces that the changes must be sustainable and focused by the sufferer. The book itself is a great self-help guide for those looking for realistic and achievable support for their ailment, and something that will reinforce the need to focus on many aspects of change (not just the one thing). I commend the author for putting together an easy to read guide that will certainly support those who are suffering from depression with a way forward.
