Ignore the negative reviews - it's worth a few bucks to judge for yourself

Bykathyshrinkson April 9, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Let me start by saying I have been an Amazon customer for twenty years and I have *never* reviewed anything before. But I consider this book to important for me to keep my mouth shut. It was a life-changer for me. Don't know why some reviewers are saying it is not helpful for people with severe depression - maybe some people with severe depression need a different approach, but let me speak for the rest of us. I was having suicidal thoughts, and on the highest doses of meds available. I was also in therapy. I tried two different therapists, both of whom wanted to talk about other people in my life - my parents, my husband, etc. - which was not helping me at all. I was at my wit's end, really scared that I was going to hurt myself if things didn't get better soon, when a friend recommended this book. You have to do the exercises - yes, they seem silly, but if they work, who the heck cares? Get a nice little notebook and a pen that you enjoy writing with. I made mine a sort of journal that I doodled in and added little inspirational quotes here and there. And yes, it is deceptively simple. Again, who cares? If standing on my head and whistling "Dixie" would have made me feel this much better, I'd be doing that, too. I started reading the book a month ago. I do not do all the excercises, but I did try all of them. I do what works for me. It's also true that there is the usual filler crap that you get in self-help books "Janet is a 40-year old dental assistant who came to me in 2005 suffering from..." blah, blah, blah. Just skip it. My depression is so much better that I am shocked. I am no longer thinking about suicide, and I am actually able to picture a future that is not completely empty and black. A future!!!!!! I have not had a future in years! I can't express what that means to me, but if you have depression, I don't have to. Try the book. If it doesn't work, I hope you will try something else, and keep on trying. You are not alone, and you deserve to be happy.

Just Buy it, It works. It will make you feel better.

ByJohn Nelsonon June 14, 2017

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

Once you start reading this book, you will start to feel better. If you suffer with depression, this book is better than any prescription I have tried.
It deals with the here and now, and teaches you how to understand your own negative contribution to your depression, and it gives you several tools with which you can assess where you are at, how you talk to yourself, how you interpret others, and how to regain control over that narrative.

Best book that I have ever read. It made a difference just reading, but much more so by using the knowledge and tools that Dr. Burns provides in the book. I bought copies for friends and family who have also had learned how to feel better and even feel good.

I would give it 6 stars if I could

I like the fact that it focuses on helping people change ...

ByAngela Yangon September 23, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I like the fact that it focuses on helping people change by using methods like correcting their own thoughts, being conscious of their actions, all in all making an effort to change things. I think this really helps whether you have mental illnesses or not. On a daily basis it helps me catch myself thinking negatively and I would tell myself why that is not that bad. I feel like reading the examples are also pretty interesting. Overall recommend reading it, especially those who like psychology.

but it is the best read I've found on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

ByAuntie Erinon February 28, 2017

This second printing is almost 20 years old, but it is the best read I've found on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My therapist and I use it as a Text Book and it's my homework.

Life saver of a book!

ByGary Phileon November 23, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is just so awesome! The author gives you an argument to combat your own negative thought patterns. Just as you would give an argument to a loved one if they were feeling horribly depressed, Dr. Burns shows you undeniable facts that deem your depressive thoughts invalid.
I re-read this book often when I need a boost and it works everytime.

Summary of Feeling Good

ByLindaon August 20, 2013

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

I just didn't like reading individual "examples" of other people's experiences - just too much of that. I'd prefer more of the writers' take on this. I don't like taking "tests" either. I already know my shortcomings but I'd prefer more professional advice on how to deal with things. I think the self help books by "Dr. Dwyer" are more for my liking.
