"Starving the Depression Gremlin" offers a revolutionary approach to overcoming depression. This groundbreaking book introduces the concept of the "depression gremlin," a negative voice that lives inside the minds of people with depression. The depression gremlin is a powerful force that can sabotage a person's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

In "Starving the Depression Gremlin," Dr. Robert Duff shares his innovative strategies for silencing the depression gremlin and reclaiming your well-being. These strategies are based on the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, and they have been proven to be effective in helping people overcome depression.

The Depression Gremlin

The depression gremlin is a negative voice that lives inside the minds of people with depression. It is a powerful force that can sabotage a person's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The depression gremlin is constantly telling people that they are worthless, unlovable, and incapable of achieving their goals. It can make people feel hopeless and helpless, and it can lead them to withdraw from social activities and isolate themselves from loved ones.

The depression gremlin is a bully. It is always there, whispering negative thoughts in a person's ear. It can be difficult to ignore the depression gremlin, but it is important to remember that it is not real. The depression gremlin is just a voice in your head, and it does not have to control you.

Starving the Depression Gremlin

The first step to overcoming depression is to starve the depression gremlin. This means challenging the negative thoughts that the depression gremlin tells you. When you hear the depression gremlin talking to you, ask yourself if there is any evidence to support its claims.
