'A roadmap back to yourself’ Mel Robbins
‘Opens us to a different way of thinking’ Dr Ramani Durvasula
‘Her compassionate approach, rigorous research, and insightful analysis make this book a must-read' Paul Brunson

*FOREWORD BY MEL ROBBINS*

A tried-and-tested handbook for understanding why you are experiencing High-Functioning Depression and how you can find the way back to hope and your true self.

Do you feel you’re simply going through the motions? Succeeding at work, pulling your weight at home, living an active social life . . . yet deep down, you feel drained? If so, you may be experiencing High-Functioning Depression.

In the first book to uncover this new form of depression, Columbia University clinical psychologist Dr Judith Joseph draws on her personal struggles with the illness, revealing brand-new research and client cases to demystify this common yet poorly understood condition.

Discover her empowering plan for managing depressive episodes, called the Five V’s:
Validation: processing past traumas and present pain
Venting: releasing frustrations and anxieties
Values: identifying our key purpose and priorities
Vitals: slowing down to hear our needs
Vision: celebrating successes, milestones and everyday joy

By following the Five V’s, we can put an end to self-sacrifice and self-sabotage, calm our inner turmoil, and go from merely functioning to truly living.

JUDITH JOSEPH, MD, MBA, is a board-certified psychiatrist and researcher specialising in mental health and trauma. She is the founder and chief investigator at New York City’s premier clinical research base, Manhattan Behavioral Medicine, assistant professor in child and adolescent psychiatry at NYU, and chair of the Women in Medicine Board at Columbia University.
