She describes how she overcame depression, and provides depression management techniques and resources. This is both for fellow sufferers and well as loved ones seeking to understand the depression and suicidal feelings their loved one is experiencing.

Far too basic and a mere explication of the obvious, the book really is just stating the obvious.

Given that the underlying theme dominating ones pursuit of negative thoughts is emotional, it rarely works to try to shape a person rationally during their irrational jump to pursue a quick fix. The book has the danger of misleading others into believing they are capable of breaking this vicious cycle themselves. The reality is that it also endangers people in this mind frame of believing that every single one is strong enough to break the cycle without seeking genuine help.
