A searingly honest story of life with depression, this is also a book of real hope.
In this candid and courageous book, Gareth O'Callaghan, one of Ireland's most popular broadcasters, looks back at his years of suffering from severe depression. He traces a pattern, common to so many depression sufferers, of a troubled childhood and low self-esteem, and recounts how he was often suicidal and barely able to function as a husband and father of three small children.
As soon as he was diagnosed, Gareth began a determined fight back to health. Now fully recovered, free of antidepressants, more optimistic and fitter than ever, he has emerged with a deep understanding of the condition.
It has been an extraordinary journey - one which has given him immense insight, practical knowledge, a deep mistrust of conventional wisdom, and a mission to spread hope to all those affected by it.
