BOOK
JACKET COPY
"If winning your
battle with depression
or bipolar disorder is
your goal, then this
book is your treasure
map for achieving that
goal."
Thus begins Bob
Olson's hopeful and
inspiring book. Win
The Battle, written
for the 20 million
Americans who suffer
from these disorders and
the 100 million who love
and support them.
He shares his true
story of suffering and
recovery--how his bright
future dimmed as he sunk
deeper and deeper into
the ravages of
depression, sleeping 18
hours a day and
regularly contemplating
suicide.
More importantly,
this is a book of
victory--of winning the
battle against
depression and regaining
a life put on hold.
Olson recounts his
5-year journey
through personal
hell: His seemingly
endless quest for relief
from his symptoms of
depression included 15
medications and 21 shock
treatments--all
unsuccessful--before he
finally found a
treatment that worked.
Olson succeeded
because he followed a
simple, yet proven
formula that will teach
your doctors, nurses,
therapists, family
members, friends and you
how to work as a team to
beat your brain
disorder.
BOOK
REVIEWS
"Bob Olson’s book offers tremendous hope and inspiration for patients and their supporting loved ones, and it tells people they need to keep trying until they find an answer. This is a book that can make a real difference and is a unique contribution to the literature on mood disorders."
~ Dr. Demitri Papolos & Janice Papolos authors of Overcoming Depression
& The Bipolar Child
"[Bob Olson’s] book inspires, as it was meant to do, because it tells a true story of a person, who assisted and supported by his wife and by others, persisted against heavy odds to achieve relief from his suffering and gain significant restoration of his health. I recommend this story to you, and I am proud to have played a small part in its unfolding."
~ Phillip L. Isenberg, M.D.,
McLean Hospital
"I agree that [Win The Battle] is both inspirational and accurate and that it would be a great help to many patients who are discouraged and demoralized by their seemingly intractable illness. It would probably also be useful to doctors to distribute to their discouraged patients... With regard to book content, I really have nothing to add...It's simple, direct and well written."
~ Dr. Donald F. Klein, author of Understanding Depression
"Awesome Book For Hope And Help ! I first learned about this book in a support group at McLean Hospital. It was recommended to me by the facilitator because my depression was deepening and I was losing hope that I would ever get better. I was even thinking about suicide. I decided to get the book because I learned that Doctor Phillip Isenberg from that hospital wrote the Foreword for it. I also learned that authors Doctor Demitri Papolos and Doctor Donald Klein recommend it as well...
"I am so grateful that my support group facilitator brought this book to my attention. People say the author's formula is simple, but that is why I love it. It is the simplicity of it that keeps me going. When I'm really depressed, I can't deal with anything complicated. That's what depression does to me. I find it hard to think straight. The author's easy steps keep me focused on everything I need to do. I usually can't focus on much else. Mostly, however, this book has given me hope. It is a book that I read every time I feel I can't face another day. Inspiration and hope is what keeps patients like me going when nothing else seems to be working. I loved this book and recommend it to anyone who is depressed. It might not change your life overnight, but it has kept me alive during my most difficult times.
~ Tom Mellor (New York)"
"This book really made me realize that my symptoms and behavior related to my depression are not my fault. It also made me see that I am following the correct path toward getting well, and that is comforting. Plus, it taught me that it may not be easy, but finding a solution is possible, and you don't have to be a doctor to understand this illness...
This Is A Great Book!"
~ Anonymous reader
"Written by a guy who obviously knows what it means to be depressed, this book takes the almost overwhelming concept of "How To Beat Depression & Bipolar Disorder" and spells it out in the easiest of terms. Does it mean you will get better next week just by reading it? No. But it teaches the reader what he needs to be doing to get better. And even more, it teaches why there is hope for ending your suffering.
"This is the first book recommended to me by my support group. Over several months, I read the book at least nine times. Today, I have a medication that relieves me of my symptoms. What more can I say. If you suffer, read this book."
~ Roland Hammer (Boston)
Extremely Well-Written For The Depressed. The author states, at the beginning of Part II, that he purposely wrote this book so it is easy-to-read for those of us dealing with depressive symptoms such as low energy, low motivation, & difficulty concentrating. He's right. I, personally, could not get through some of the more difficult and complex books on this subject. It takes a skilled & confident writer to refrain from using the fancy prose & medical jargon, and to remain focused on the simplest way to present his message and the lessons he has to teach. Olson brilliantly succeeded in this regard.
While some may accuse Olson as being repetitive of some lessons, the best teachers know that "repetition is the mother of all learning." Readers of "Win The Battle" will not walk away confused as to what they need to do to get better. If you want a book that requires great intellectual thought, buy something else. If you want a book that will give you straightforward guidance (from experience not theory) and one powerful message of hope, read this one. (It was the first book recommended to me when I joined my support group.)"
