Resumen del Editor

"What if the suffering that we call depression contains experiences and lessons without which we cannot be fully alive?"

This is one of the many startling questions that Giving Up Without Giving Up invites us to ask ourselves. Depression seems to be a contemporary epidemic, a condition understandably feared and avoided by all. Yet this book explores the possibility that we have much to learn from the desert times in our lives, when it feels as though we are losing everything, most of all any sense of who we are.

Drawing on his extensive experience of meditation within both the Buddhist and Christian contemplative traditions, as well as his own times of personal loss and bewilderment, Jim Green offers us a moving account of just how this wisdom practice can accompany each of us as we make "the gentle pilgrimage of recovery". He guides us through "the invention of depression" in the mid-20th century, questioning the increasing tendency to medicalize human suffering. Based on the insight that "Life is the Treatment", he offers a thorough and practical approach to our times of personal desolation, showing how we can learn to treat ourselves and each other with care and compassion. At the heart of this approach is the practice of meditation, learned from the Buddha, The Desert Fathers and Mothers, and Jesus himself. It's a practice that, this heartfelt book insists, can help you "to be depressed - which might mean in mourning - for exactly as long as you need to be, no longer and no shorter. Then, changed, you are brought back to life, which is change itself."

This will save my life.

I'm a mental health therapist that also lives with depression. A client told me she was reading this book, and I picked it up just for ... who knows. I have never read anything that resonated so deeply. I kept thinking/saying "How did you know?!" I have so much gratitude to God and the author for making this book available for me.
