She couldnt stop it. She watched and she begged, and she got frustrated and angry; she demanded and sought support, but she couldnt stop it. She was a witness to the downward spiral, but she was helpless. But if she couldnt stop it, would it be enough to understand it? In A Dialogue with Depression, author Om Devi shares the journey through her husbands struggle with clinical depression. It is an expression of her discovered wisdom over the years of a deep emotional acknowledgement of the illness that had surrounded her. With biography and through stream of consciousness to express her observations of herself and her husband, Om Devi uses text messages, letters, diagnoses, poems, thoughts, and research to convey and illuminate the lived experience of depression. Understanding clinical depression can help others have more awareness and compassion for those who suffer from the disease of clinical depression. Although Om Devi couldnt stop it or fix her husband, she learned how to understand and forgive herselfand how to share and listen with love and compassion so that we all can hear and heal.
