About the Book:

The first book to unmask the hidden face of depression. If you look fine on the outside but don’t feel fine on the inside, learn five tools to break the cycle of High Functioning Depression and experience more joy in your life.

Are you going through a period in your life when things feel “off”? Do you struggle to find joy in happy moments? Are you walking around feeling numb? Do you feel restless when you aren’t busy or empty when you are sitting still? We all know what can’t-get-out-of-bed depression looks like. But there’s another, lesser-known side of depression that is hidden.Those of us with High-Functioning Depression (HFD) usually don’t act the way we think a depressed person might. On the surface, we seem fine: We are succeeding at work, pulling our weight at home, and carrying on with our typical social life. Yet behind that mask of productivity, we are barely surviving, and certainly not thriving. And we may have no idea why, or what to do about it.In High Functioning, Dr. Judith Joseph draws on original research, client cases, and her own personal struggles with HFD to demystify this poorly understood condition. Her five simple tools—the Five V’s—will help you understand the science of your happiness and empower you to reclaim your life and joy.
