Terry Dow has suffered from depression since he was twelve years old. He was sexually, physically, and verbally abused by his monstrous father for years. As a small child, he witnessed his mother endure terrible beatings. Terry has suffered great loss and tremendous challenges due to the depression that has haunted him for most of his life. This book vividly details his tragedies and triumphs, yet also utilizes humor along the way. Terry also reveals what life was like for him in a mental hospital. This book is not a sob story. It is the story of a preacher's journey through depression and his subsequent recovery. The coping skills and tools he learned are revealed in this book. Preachers in particular, and Christians in general, are not immune from depression. The last chapter provides interesting information regarding several men and women in the Bible who suffered with depression. This is a very interesting, informative, and practical book for everyone who suffers with depression, as well as those who want to learn more about it so they can help their loved ones.
