Although he holds a doctorate in depression, author Greg L. Russ chose to write this book from a patient's point of view. Having suffered five clinical bouts, Russ offers a graphic look inside the dark abyss while chronicling the insights he learned when his depression intersected God's mercy. The book extends an invitation to families, friends, churches and their pastors to become part of the comforting process. Enlightening and encouraging, Help! Someone I Love is Depressed will speak to the church, medical and counseling professionals, military and the general public.
