> By the way, another great book is William Styron's Darkness Visible, which is a memoir of his own experience with depression. I was just rereading it tonight, as I do when I am in the throes of a bad bout of this wretched illness, because reading it always lifts my spirits just a little.
I read this book also (Darkness Visible). I also saw Styron on an HBO special about depression. It was completely chilling. Anyway, he really rips current day psychiatry (i.e. careless use of benzo's, reliance on meds, etc.). This book is both a story of insanity and inspiration. I think I'll go pick it up and read it again!
