The last 10 years have seen an upturn in the number of people
reporting difficulties with emotional and mental health issues,
particularly anxiety and depression. And, it is often the strongest
who struggle under the weight of all they have nobly tried to
shoulder. Turn to the Bible, and this truth is played out in the
lives of some of its greatest characters. King David led a nation -
yet wrote some of the Bible's bleakest laments. Elijah worked
outlandish public miracles - and later pleaded God to take his
life. Dedicated, hardworking mother and woman of God Naomi
acknowledged that she had become characterised by bitterness. And
lifelong God follower Job found himself longing for a death that
would not come. This book affirms that depressive illness can
strike anyone - not least the capable, busy people with the
`can-do' attitude of the title. This special bespoke edition for
the Christian market takes a destigmatising, thoroughly informed
approach to depression, with a foreword by Will Van Der Hart, whose
own experience of ill mental health led to him founding Mind &
Soul, the leading Christian mental health organisation.
