How To Control Your Anxiety Before It Controls You
Albert Ellis
Citadel, 2000
Easy read; comprehensive action methods to control anxiety
+ Read this Book to Control Your Unnecessary Anxiety
At the time I bought this book, I was unaware of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, had never heard of Dr. Albert Ellis, and wasn't really looking to solve any particular anxiety problem of my own.

The Bell Jar
Sylvia Plath
Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2006
Why, oh, why was I reading Holden Caulfield when I should have been reading Esther Greenwood?
+ I was moved
+ This isn't a book about depression
One might think that a novel about a young college woman's experience with madness in the mid-20th century would come across as dated or even quaint. On the contrary, as I read I found myself nodding emphatically, and even calling up friends to tell them about passages I'd read that were ...

Against Depression
Peter D. Kramer
Penguin (Non-Classics), 2006
another great book from Dr. Kramer
+ Myself vs Depression
I'm a big fan of Peter Kramer's books, especially Listening to Prozac, which is a psychopharmacological classic. Against Depression does not disappoint either, and in it he dispels the modern notion that depression should be held in esteem and even romanticized. He instead sees depression as ...
