books have been written for those suffering from depression, but what if you're

problems yourself, including anxiety, phobias, and even a kind of contagious
depression.
In this authoritative and compassionate book, psychologists

depression that can cause communication breakdown, increase hostility, and
ultimately destroy relationships. Through compelling real-life stories and
step-by-step advice, the authors teach concrete methods that you and your loved
one can use to protect yourselves and your relationship from depression's
impact. Drawing on their own innovative research, the give sensitive guidance
about how to recognize your needs, how to provide the best kind of support, and
how to encourage the depressed person to seek treatment. Whether you are the
partner, parent, friend, or child of a depressed person, you'll find this book
and invaluable companion in you journey back to health).
(Amazon.com editorial book explains this book the best. The
authors "bring their extensive research and clinical experience to a
detailed examination of the immediate and longer-term effects of
high-conflict divorce on children. The authors trace the developmental
problems affecting very young children through adolescence, with special
attention to the impact of family violence and the dynamics of parental
alienation. They describe the clinical interventions that have proven to be
most effective in their work with individual families and groups along with
principles for custody decision making and service programs in the courts and
communities that help manage the conflict. In the Name of the Child will be
an invaluable asset to clinical social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists,
mediators, family law attorneys, judges, and teachers who work with children
of divorce. This book has also been recommended for families)."
