How it works
This journal is designed for you to discover what works for you, so there is no pressure to use the book in order. Try one journal entry, then another—read one resource, then skip to a different one. Tailor the experience to work for you.
Depression is not one-size-fits-all. However, there are tools—and a combination of tools—that work effectively for alleviating it.
We provide over 80 entries in the journaling section spanning all five tools. In addition, you’ll find suggested use tips so you may incorporate them into your journaling routine.
Depending on the tools that resonate with you, you can continue on to seek providers or other resources that build on that framework. This step can help you get the most out of the tools that you’ve found most helpful for your experience of depression.
If you’re ready to learn more, you can find robust educational overviews that cover each evidence-based tool featured in the book.
We included these resources to empower you with the knowledge to understand how and why these evidence-based treatments work.
