Description

This book is not about the author's depression. Rather, it is a written record of intimate confessions about his depression, and is close to a personal quest for it. The depression, which began at age 14, sometimes took on an inexorable amount of energy to keep you from getting out of bed, and allowed time to pass on indefinitely, and caused you to cancel your commitment to other people. I also removed every lesson I had in my college years from my author's memory. The anorexia experienced in his late teens drove him to the bathtub, where he could not even lie down, and left him for group therapy. Although he continued to understand depression through the works of artists who dealt with it, through thinkers' books, he was able to get away from it by singing, by self-portraits, by writing, by walking with a dog. In this book, the author draws together the insights and experiences of people like Freud, Foucault and Wolf to convey to them what depression is like, sometimes even to their chests.

As a depressed person, I felt that I was the most realistic representation of depression. And I don't think it was just a book on depression, but a book about life and

The Dutch philosopher and writer Eva Mayer admits that he has been depressed since he was 14 and describes his own grammar in which he lives with depression. It's not the way to overcome depression that slowly fades away all colors and eventually turns gray with only a memory of color. It's just that the darkness of depression doesn't just grow and shrink and disappear. And it shows us the comfort, hope, and the meaning of life by accepting depression. Since she was young, she has been
