About this product

Product Information

"A 'landmark book.'"-- The New York Times *When the dark days of winter approach, do you feel sluggish and slow? Is it a struggle to get out of bed each morning? *Do you have difficulty focusing at work or in relationships, feel down in the dumps, or, worse still, get really depressed? *Does it get harder than ever to stick to a healthy diet and control your weight? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, you may be one of the millions of people who suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Picking up this book is the first step toward feeling more energized, productive, and alive--all year long. Dr. Norman E. Rosenthal's engaging, compassionate style and rich store of scientific wisdom have made this trusted guide a perennial bestseller. Dr. Rosenthal explains how to evaluate your own level of seasonality, get the most out of light boxes and other effective self-help options, and make informed decisions about antidepressants and psychotherapy. The thoroughly updated fourth edition features a new chapter on different meditation practices and their benefits. Packed with information and insights, this is a tried-and-true survival kit for weathering the winter blues. See also Dr. Rosenthal's Winter Blues Survival Guide , a step-by-step workbook that helps you craft a customized SAD treatment plan.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

  • The SAD Bible

    I was diagnosed with SAD almost a year ago, and no one seems to know much about it. All the doctors have been trying to treat me like they would anyone with ordinary MDD. This book was written by the very person who discovered the condition back in the '70s, and has devoted his life to treating it. That makes it the most reliable source of information out there. After reading this I know more than my doctors (and have stopped going to one of them, who should have taken the time to learn more before taking the insurance money). If you have Seasonal Affective Disorder, this is priceless. if you are like many people who just feel kind of down in the cold, dark winters, it will give you some solid science on how to drive those winter blues away. I can't recommend it any more highly.
