تخلص من الاكتئاب بالقراءة

"Therapeutic reading" is an ancient technique that is finally regaining its role in supporting mental health, particularly for mild to moderate depression. It goes beyond mere enjoyment; self-help books and workbooks help patients understand their thoughts, feelings, and surrounding behaviors. Novels, poetry, and even picture books can facilitate deeper self-repair when discussed with a therapist or in a group, according to research by Professor James Carney at the University of London.

This approach is officially recognized in some countries like Canada, where it has been prescribed as a standalone treatment within mental health programs for nearly a century. The clear path is that reading alone is not enough; it must be complemented by a thorough discussion of its contents and the personal points that resonate with the recipient.
