Fritz Kamer, PhD, is the
author of several nonfiction
books and is involved in
numerous ways in caring for
patients of depression and
their family members.
An entrepreneur for many
years, John P. Kummer has
himself been a victim of
depression. Free of the
illness for 20 years, he is
committed to encouraging
self-help for depression
sufferers and to the general
promotion of mental health
at both the private and the
state level.
Serious depression not only causes deep suffering for the
victims themselves but also acts as a heavy burden on their
close relatives. The atmosphere is tainted by guilt feelings and
insecurity and also by anger towards the sick person as well as
nagging worries about the future. In fact, depression is more
burdensome for partners and family members than are many
other serious illnesses. This book supports and bolsters them
for their heavy task and offers elucidating information about
the sickness.
