Reviewed by Rachel Dehning for Reader Views (6/20)

How we feel physically and mentally can make or break us. Dr. Bob Rich understands this and has the experience and expertise to solicit his advice unto our eager ears. In his book, “From Depression to Contentment: a Self-Therapy Guide,” Dr. Rich digs into the topic of depression and helps the reader make sense of this debilitating issue. “From Depression to Contentment” lives up to its promise by being very thorough in explaining every way in which depression can take hold of your life, and then teaches the reader how to take back control of their life to ease their symptoms. Dr. Rich’s book is a self-help book, providing the necessary information for the reader to be able to apply it to their own life in order to live a happier, more fulfilling life.

Everything about depression that Dr. Rich says in his book makes sense, is informationally correct, and can be easily done by any reader, as long as they are willing to put forth the effort. Anything that needs fixing in our lives requires some work, and depression is far from the exception. I appreciate how he covers the expanse of influence that depression has on a person’s life, but then also provides solid and attainable goals to work toward.

I also appreciate the extra resources through websites and book suggestions to add to our knowledge on this subject. He writes with a mostly positive and personal tone so that the reader can’t help but feel that they are sitting in his office, receiving his expert help in person. I say “mostly” above because the reader will find some of his personal beliefs interspersed in the text that might not be a shared opinion among everyone.

“From Depression to Contentment: a Self-Therapy Guide,” by Dr. Bob Rich should be known and read by everyone to help reduce the number of cases of depression around the world.

A book by a teenager for teenagers!

Words of a Journey is a book for anyone who wants to take a closer
look at life's meaning and their experiences.
Seventeen-year old Kaitlyn Kashman has designed this book to
provide thought-stimulation on various issues and feelings that young
adults explore. The book is a potpourri of poetry, with introspective,
inspirational questions and observations to stimulate thought in readers
so they can come to a clearer understanding of their own feelings
and desires.


Topics for deeper introspection run the vast range of emotions and
situations young adults experience to help readers analyze and clarify
their own relationships:

Understanding unrequited love leads to analysis between what
is a want vs. a need.

The difficulties of first love, learning about oneself, seeking the
thrill of love, and knowing when it is best to end.

Discovering that one cannot change for another person.

Learning that sometimes we love our own fictional version of a
person.

Nourishing a budding sense of new identity.

Finding the boundaries between two people, accepting and
embracing ourselves.


An important book for any teenager or young adult, Words of a
Journey will take readers down a path that will lead them back home
to find a better version of themselves.


Critics Praise for Words of A Journey

"In Words of a Journey Kaitlyn gives teenagers permission to
think for themselves and a place to express themselves on the
pages of the book. A simple thought gives way to self-expression
and the opportunity for clarity. Words of a Journey: My
Thoughts on Life and Living, serves as a journal that can be used
every day. Often, we simply need to see our thoughts in print
to make sense out of our struggle and to fully appreciate our
joy!"

--Judee Ausnow, author of Drama is Optional: A Guide for Teens
