Is it just me, or is this not a good title for a book on this serious topic? And, yes, this is a real book.

That's pretty bad.

"Your life sucks, and will continue to suck unless that you admit that you're stupid and give us $15."

There's just no winning. I suffered from depression some years ago, and when I was finally willing to admit that I was too (weak/foolish/unmanly/*insert generic self-deprication here*) to deal with it myself, I went to the doctor. They gave me drugs. I took my drugs everyday. Later, I felt much better, and now my life is happy again, though I haven't been on drugs for years, now.

I liken anti-depressants to a tow-truck. When you wreck in a ditch somewhere and no one can help you, this won't really fix the problem, but it will help put you in a position to do so.
 


I think the "Dummie" books are great for a lot of people ... and I realize that the dummie thing is kinda their trademark, but geesh. It does seem a bit ... wrong.
 

The only thing I can imagine worse is: "Self Esteem for Dummies".

My ex-fiancee and myself had many laughs at a local bookstore over their prominent display of "The Idiot's Guide to Reincarnation" (coming from a Dummies knock-off line). We figured you could write such a book in three sentences.

1. Die
2. Get reborn into another life.
3. Repeat as neccesary
