The best book I‘ve read about depression so far! ✨ The author‘s attempt to educate on depression without oversimplifying and to express her struggles in life without complicating her feelings is very evident.

This doesn‘t involve a deep discourse about depression, but as a single person‘s account of facing it and dealing with it, it‘s so relatable and a good read! 📖

I think this has to be the best book I've read on depression. And not only because it is so well written but also because it is so relatable. Some of us may not be suffering from depression on that level but we do feel bouts of sadness, loneliness, emotional turmoil, rejection, inferiority, helplessness etc. The book feels like a companion who understands every one of these feelings and helps overcome it.

The book is a raw portrayal of the author's experience of being in the state of "Clinical Depression" for more than half of her life. It's very personal, honest and easy to understand! It makes us realise the gravity of depression and the accompanying situations. This book surely portrays one of the aspects of Depression quite well!
It makes it clear that no matter what your financial conditions are, you can still go into a state of depression!

“You can buy happiness off the rack - but sadness is tailor-made just for you.“

This is Shaheen Batt's autobiography, describing her experiences with depression.
This is a very well written and to the point narration of multiple mental health issues like eating disorder, suicidal thoughts and anxiety and how she manages to deal with them.
I liked how this was just HER story and not filled with typical bollywood references involving her family.
