About this Blog
The purpose of this blog and the accompanying art pieces is to help myself and others find a productive path forward through the haze and maze of the dual illness, Depression/Anxiety. My qualifications to be sharing my ever-evolving management plan for coping with this disease with others rest on the fact that I have been lucky enough to have excellent medical insurance. My insurance has given me unfettered access to top-notch mental health professionals and the latest techniques being used to help people with our disease. Because I have been so fortunate in this regard, I feel a strong desire — and need — to share what I have learned. In sharing, I help to reinforce my own understanding, as well as providing insights that will hopefully help others as much as they have has helped me.
The Blog in Book Form
In order to make the contents of this blog more easily available, both to my fellow sufferers as well as to those professionals and lay people, including family members, who are concerned about how people can deal with chronic Depression/Anxiety, I have made it available in book form, both as an e-book, as well as in a printed version. You can order either or both versions by using the links below.
