"Depression is a painful nervous disease.
Can I help you?
According to WHO statistics, it leads to around one million suicides worldwide every year, with a strong upward trend at the moment due to the overall situation with the corona pandemic.
Since 1998, I have gained more and more experience with depression - through my own illnesses until 2008, through the help I received at the time, especially from those who were formerly affected, and through my work in supporting sufferers and their families.
I found out that, in addition to good specialist medical treatment, it is very important that those affected apply a few very simple rules and methods in everyday life. And that it is almost more important that relatives and friends understand depression properly and learn what to do and what not to do. If this is observed, the sufferer can endure the illness more easily and, in most cases, comes out of it more quickly.
Unfortunately, these very important topics of "help" and "self-help" are almost completely neglected, and there is hardly any practical information about them. With my two books I help to close this gap. Everything that has really proven its worth according to my experience, I have written down there in an easy-to-understand
Self-help with depression - e-book
"The book "I can help"
"I can help" is aimed specifically at relatives and friends of those affected. They learn to see the world through the eyes of the person they want to help. The methods to help are explained in great detail and in more depth than in the book "My Friend". But I use simple language without any technical terms.
The book is available as an eBOOK (PDF 16:9 for PC/tablet, ePUB portrait format for smartphones and eBOOK readers) and as a high-quality printed book."
