Depression can leave a person feeling lonely, isolated, exhausted and even ashamed. On top of that, it can sometimes be difficult to know if what we’re experiencing is depression. We need tools and support to distinguish typical and normal sadness from the very debilitating and oppressive burden that depression can be for some people.

In this 16-page booklet, you will learn the factors that can lead to both clinical and reactive depression, symptoms to watch for in yourself and those around you, how to help a loved one, spouse and/or child who may be struggling, and how we can look to God even in our darkest valleys.
