High functioning : how to overcome your hidden depression and reclaim your joy / by Joseph, Judith,author.; Robbins, Mel,writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Many of us experience periods in our lives when something feels "off": when we struggle to find joy in happy moments, feel pessimistic about the future, and take little pleasure in things we used to enjoy. On the surface, we might be good at pretending we're doing fine-we are motivated and productive at work, pulling our weight at home, and conducting a normal social life-but behind that façade we are barely surviving, and certainly not thriving. We're all familiar with what depression can look like-but there's another, lesser known face to this illness. High functioning depression (HFD) doesn't conform to the image of depression that typically comes to mind: someone who is deeply sad and finds it hard to get out of bed in the morning. As a result, people with HFD often have no idea why they are suffering, or what to do about it. Drawing on original research, client cases, and her personal experience with HFD, Dr. Judith empowers readers with five simple tools to reclaim their lives from this poorly understood condition. By following her Her 5 V's--validation, venting, values, vision, and vitals--we can wake up happier, become more satisfied in our relationships, and regain joy in the present while looking forward to tomorrow.

Joy of Connections, The 100 Ways to Beat Loneliness and Live a Happier and More Meaningful Life [electronic resource] : by Westheimer, Dr. Ruth K..aut; Gilbert, Allison.aut; Lehu, Pierre.aut; Feldshuh, Tovah.nrt; Gilbert, Allison.nrt; Lehu, Pierre.nrt; cloudLibrary;
In Dr. Ruth’s final book, the iconic therapist offers an urgent guide to combating loneliness with 100 ways to increase connectivity right now, based on insights from her life story and her unparalleled career. “Dr. Ruth’s strategies are essential for building the kinds of bonds that will reduce loneliness and transform lives.”—Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project When Surgeon General Vivek Murthy sounded the alarm that loneliness “represents an urgent public health concern”—exacerbated by social media overuse, the residual effects of the pandemic, and the lack of meaningful relationships—trusted therapist Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer knew that her unique perspective and expertise could help. Long beloved for breaking stigmas around sexual problems, Dr. Ruth made it her mission to help individuals break free from the bonds of hopelessness and isolation. We are social animals. We have a shared desire to connect and create lasting relationships with the people around us. But the heaviness of loneliness can make this feel impossible. Dr. Ruth, with Emmy Award–winning journalist Allison Gilbert and longtime collaborator Pierre Lehu, tackles the subject with compassion and her trademark no-nonsense approach. She provides practical and creative strategies for finding friends, community, and intimacy. And it’s anchored by Dr. Ruth’s own story, from the horrific loneliness of losing her family in the Holocaust to living in an orphanage to rebuilding her life in America and eventually becoming a world-renowned sex therapist. With 100 concrete and innovative opportunities that can be put to use immediately, The Joy of Connections isn’t only an action-oriented guidebook on overcoming loneliness from one of the most well-respected therapists of our time; it’s also the vital kick in the pants we all need in order to start seeking—and finding—deep and lasting human connections. * This audiobook edition includes a downlaodable PDF including the Further Resources section from the book.
