Book Title: Why do I feel so sad? Author: Dr Shefali Batra Publisher: Jaico, 2023 Pages: 305 Having gone through extreme depression two times, I know how painful the state is. You feel you are the most damned fool on the earth, utterly useless. You curse the day you were born. You long for death. Worst of all, you don’t trust anyone, not even those who intend to help you sincerely. I trusted books, however. Weren’t they my friends forever, the only friends who didn’t ditch me at any time? Dr Shefali Batra’s book, Why do I feel so sad? Your pathway to healing depression , is an eminently companionable text that I will recommend to anyone who is going through depression. The book is divided into five parts. You will get to know the theoretical and scientific aspects of depression in the first part. The title of the second part is self-explanatory: ‘ Thoughts rule you, but when twisted, they could fool you . ’ The subsequent parts take you on a self-re-creating journey. Dr
