Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy by David D. Burns

4.0

The book does a great job at systematically approaching cognitive distortions. While I disagree that negative thinking alone is the cause of all depression, I do believe it plays a large role. This book I think can be helpful if you experience mild to somewhat moderate depression. While the book tackles severe depression and even s**cidal ideation, I don't think I could have digested this book in throes of my deepest depression. It does come off self help-y at times but I have found the mood logs and daily cognitive distortion work helpful.
