Burns, M.D., outlines the remarkable, scientifically proven techniques that will immediately lift your spirits and help you develop a positive outlook on life, enabling you to:

• Nip negative feelings in the bud
• Recognize what causes your mood swings

"I would personally evaluate David Burns' Feeling Good as one of the most significant books to come out of the last third of the Twentieth Century."—Dr. David F. Maas, Professor of English, Ambassador University

Hard Work - Worth the Effort

If you are committed to improvement and follow the exercises you will improve...It isnt overnight but I look back and have seen continual improvement over the last several months.

Life Changing

I read this book and followed his therapeutic regimen daily during a relapse of depression. In conjunction with an antidepressant (Pristiq) and weekly visits with my psychiatrist these powerful techniques brought comfort and relief. If you or someone you know is suffering from depression then be the candle in the dark and give them a copy of this book.

helped turn my depression around

I had been struggling to read first the soft back, then the Kindle version of this book. It was just a bit dense. The audible version was perfect for me. I was able to get through the book and retain the information. The coping mechanisms within this book really help me turn my depression around and I'm feeling a lot better than I was.

Buy 10 copies and give them away... Best book!!!

The information is not WooWoo, but very logical and action specific. Each concept is easy to understand and then take action on. Very interesting and relevant, not to mention helpful. Both my wife and teenage son are reading it now.

Replaced by Feeling Great book

Even though Feeling Great kind of replaces this book this book is still better then all other books out there for depression. Following the exercises in this book not only cured my depression but gave me tools to deal with relapse.

Now getting rid of anxiety is much more difficult and is part of the reason I relapse on depression. That's where his other books come in. The newer book Feeling Great should be required reading in High School in my opinion.
