Rescuing Your Teenager from Depression

Rescuing Your Teenager from Depression could have been written about my own son. Very informative and helpful!

Reading required for parents or parents to-be.

This book can help save a life. As his son, I attest Dr. Berlinger explains depression in frank terms that both professionals and parents can understand and follow. Any parent who wishes to get a better grasp on their child's symptoms will be directed towards reality. I am living proof that this book works.

a must for parents with depressed teens

For any parent who thinks or knows their child has depression, there is no better source of information than this book. We found our son described on nearly every page. It helped us to understand the problem. More importantly, it helped us to learn how to help him. Reading this book makes me want to devote the rest of my life to helping parents in this situation.
