Does anyone know of any readable books on depression? aka, books that are shorter and less intimidating and overwhelming looking to read? Thanks. Also, I posted here earlier about depression. Don't think it went through though.
Thanks for this!

I usually stay away from them for some reason. There are a ton of self help books now it seems on overcoming depression based on re wiring your brain or neuro plasticity. I do read a lot of research on the internet.

I am most of the way through "The Noon Day Demon" by Andrew Solomon. It is pretty long. It is based on his own experience and very extensive research.
