We should share more books that we like about therapy - I try to see what is on the shelves at my Therapist's office sometimes.
Someone gave me "Psychiatry can be damaging to your mental health". It was really a harsh "ust think yourself out of it" book. On the other hand I've read many of Dr. Yalom's books and they are entertaining but they seem to present Therapists as having the ability to be pretty judgemental. I now use the University library - much more "real" stuff.
I've said this before though, the most beautifully written book on depression I've read is "Undercurrents". It is not a text but rather a journal. I finally saw myself. This one I told my Therapist about!
