About this listen

Tried everything, but still not feeling better?

If your depression keeps coming back or is even getting worse, then you may be suffering from bipolar II or “soft” bipolar disorder. Commonly misdiagnosed, these mood disorders are characterized by recurring bouts of depression along with anxiety, irritability, mood swings, sleep problems, or intrusive thoughts.

Why Am I Still Depressed? shows you how to identify if you have a nonmanic form of bipolar disorder and how to work with your doctor to safely and effectively treat it.

Author James R. Phelps, M.D., gives you the latest tools and knowledge so you can:

  • Understand the mood spectrum, a powerful new tool for diagnosis
  • Know all your treatment options, including mood-stabilizing medications and research-tested psychotherapies
  • Examine the potential hazards of taking antidepressant medications
  • Manage your condition with exercise and lifestyle changes
  • Help family and friends with this condition understand their diagnosis and find treatment

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book spends a LONG time talking about diagnosis. If you are unsure whether you have bipolar, it could be very helpful. But if you have been diagnosed or are pretty sure already, it’s a while before the book gets to anything really useful for you. And the sections that do have helpful information are really short in comparison. The author’s style of writing and delivery are charming and engaging, but I don’t think I was the target audience for the information presented.

Better for people who aren’t sure about bipolar

This guy states many many times that lithium is the answer to all. Granted, all he talks about is lithium and effects.
