Level up your mental health, one quest at a time.

What if fighting depression felt less like an endless uphill battle... and more like playing your favourite game?
Gamifying Your Recovery from Depression is your interactive strategy guide to reclaiming your energy, focus, and joy, not by forcing yourself through boring "self‑care lists," but by turning recovery into a playable, winnable adventure.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

  • Slay the Depression Dragon with small, winnable quests that actually motivate you.
  • Respawn after crashes using a simple protocol that gets you back in the game fast.
  • Equip Legendary Gear, powerful tools, apps, and rituals that make self‑care easier and more fun.
  • Boost your stats instantly with quick sensory, movement, and comfort "buffs."
  • Manage your stamina bar so you don't burn out on good days or stall out on bad ones.
  • Expand your map by safely exploring new hobbies, spaces, and experiences.
  • Recruit your guild, the right allies to fight alongside you and keep you inspired.
  • Whether you're stuck in survival mode or ready for your New Game+ chapter, this book gives you clear, customisable systems to transform your recovery into something engaging, rewarding, and built to last.

    No more dragging yourself through days on autopilot.
    No more feeling like the game is playing you.
    It's time to pick up your controller and play to win.

    Who this book is for:

  • Anyone struggling with depression who wants a more motivating, hopeful way to approach recovery.
  • Gamers, creatives, and goal‑trackers who love systems that feel fun, not clinical.
  • People tired of generic advice who want practical, flexible tools they can adapt to their own life.
  • Your main quest starts now.
    Equip yourself, rally your allies, and get ready to turn every small win into a step toward your next level.
