Like trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose!

I think most people will find something useful in this book to help them. However, it is not THE definitive answer in curing depression. I think this book can be part of the solution. It is not the only solution out there. I am very confused why this book touts itself as The Clinically Proven...

good insight into cognitions

Although I was a little put off by the length of the book, I'm enjoying the read and am finding the information extremely valuable even if only for awareness. I recommend this one if your interested in understanding and/or changing the way you think about things.

Some timeless truth in this book -- take what you can and leave the rest

You don't have to read every page of this book and work every exercise offered in order to get some help in dealing with your depression. My copy of this book was published in 1980 and I refer back to it a couple of times a year as a refresher. I found great value in his 10 cognitive distortions...

Changed the way I live my life...

I went through a real "rock bottom" point and turned to this book for guidance and hope. I'm in my mid 20's and just needed something/someone to direct me into literally - feeling good. This book taught me so many simple things like turning off the negative side of my brain and to focus on the...

Basic CBT, still relevent.

Cognitive behavior therapy has been used for a long time to deal with mood disorders. This book has been around for at least a decade now I'd say. It's still a good book on CBT, not much has changed. It's a long book and covers CBT and medications pretty thoroughly.Jane StevensTao Cycle Therapy:...

You can convince yourself not to hate yourself by writing out reasons.

I forgot about this book, I read it many years ago (that makes four that I've read). It's very thick, must be about 800 pages I think. The general idea is that if you can figure out and understand how your thoughts effect your mood and then you logically change the thoughts you have, your mood...

Everything's Swell! I Feel Nice!

Can we convince ourselves that everything's swell and that we feel nice? Of course! People can convince themselves of all kinds of things that are objectively untrue. If you want to go through life believing things that are objectively untrue, cognitive behavioral therapy is for you. But does...

Hay que desafectarlo

Este comentario va en castellano porque su máxima utilidad es para lectores no usamericanos.El libro es bueno, muy bueno diria, pero el lector no usamericano debe hacer un trabajo constante para "desusamericanizarlo" pues el libro tiene muchas cosas que solo son razonables para alguien que tenga...

Excellent

When I began reading the book is was skeptical to try Dr. Burn's methods but I was also desperate. I have been dealing with anxiety and depression for a year and nothing was working. I started using the triple column technique every day, recording my distorted thoughts, identifying the cognitive...
