Working in the Dark

Each year, eleven million Americans experience a major depressive episode. Keeping a job while struggling to regain health is one of the least talked about but most difficult aspects of recovery from depression…until now.

Here is a first-of-its kind, immediately useful guide to dealing with depression at the workplace. Reassuring and informative, the authors address questions such as

• Should I ask my boss for time off?
• Should I tell colleagues about my depression?
• What are my legal rights?

“I commend the authors for facing up to real-life, hard questions that people suffering with mental illnesses face in the workplace every day. The answer provided in this book are factual, practical, and easy to understand.”
– Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter

“This wonderful book helped me come out of the closet about my depression, helped me deal with my work, and basically has been a godsend.”
– Cynthia Heimel, Author
