About this listen

Twenty to 30 million Americans suffer from some form of diagnosable depression, and their ranks are growing. Psychologist Michael D. Yapko explains that in order to find relief, more than the current episode of depression must be examined. In Breaking the Patterns of Depression, he presents skills that enable listeners to understand and ultimately avert depression's recurring cycles.

Breaking the Patterns of Depression begins by translating the clinical literature on psychotherapy and antidepressant medication into language that can be used to enhance an understanding of depression, and to personalize individual cures. Yapko uses a conversational, anecdotal tone that encourages listeners to take an active approach to helping themselves. Special sections entitled "Learn by Doing" and "Shifting Perspectives" help develop the skills necessary to manage difficult experiences.

More realistic and helpful than other depression-management books on the market, Breaking the Patterns of Depression defines what causes depression and, best of all, clarifies what can be done about it. With this knowledge in hand, listeners can control their depression, rather than having depression control them.

Good content awful narration

So I got this book after seeing a talk by the doctor on YouTube and really liking what he was saying… I have a hard copy as well, but sometimes it’s nice to just have some thing read to you! Also there are questions a little like work sheets so it’s better in hard copy for that (there’s no pdf’s) This has really good content but unfortunately, I CANNOT STAND the narrator ! he has an extremely grating nasal stereoTypical annoying American voice ..I searched him ,he is maybe from Rhode Island, so I’m not sure what kind of accent they have but it’s totally ruining my enjoyment of the book. I’ve tried slowing the speed down but he still drives me nuts - it’s like chalk on a blackboard to me…really really really unfortunate. I wish it would be rerecorded with a narrator with a less annoying voice.. try the sample , if you can cope with the narrator, great content..

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
