Book excerpt: Thirty years ago, I collapsed with a postpartum depression after our fifth child. There were no easy answers, and there were no antidepressants, so I asked God if he would be my Great Psychiatrist. He has gently taught me wonderful truths for living a happy life, which I share with you in Humpty. I write first as a patient, secondly as a Bible student and teacher, and lastly as a nurse who has been a hospice nursing coordinator. I am unaware of any book on the market today that attacks depression from a holistic perspective. I do not think you can get well without working on all three areas of life: spirit, mind, and body. Thus, Humpty. As a patient, I know that there were times when I couldnt concentrate. It was as though a fog settled on the shoreline of my mind. I have written Humpty using stories from my family and many friends. These stories are real and easy to read. My goal is to extend hope to anyone living a difficult life for whatever reason. Twenty million people are known to have depression. We are not all mentally ill; many of us are experiencing changes in our lives. We need time, friends, and a little help to switch the gears of life from wife to widow, employed to unemployed, freedom to twenty-four-hour caregiver.
