Editorial Review: Product Description: Depression is a secret pain at the core of many men's lives, and one that goes largely undiagnosed and untreated. The consequences of not treating male depression are extremely serious. Studies show that suicide is more common in men than women, and tha the male suicide rate is three times higher at midlife than at any other life stage. In Unmasking Male Depression, Dr. Archibald Hart explores the many forms of depression and gives tools for coping with and healing depression in men. Hart also examines the lives of Christian leaders who struggled with depression, such as Charles Spurgeon, Martin Luther, and John Calvin, to reveal the myths surrounding this illness Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Unmasking Male DepressionThis may very well be a good book for every male to read, except those who are happy, content, and never have anything in life disrupt those attributes. :) It may also be instructional for every woman married to one of those men. This is an easy read, and although it has scriptural underpinnings, it should not by discounted by those with agnostic or atheistic beliefs. It is easily palatable to those with and without religion as part of their lives. I highly recommend ... Read More Rating:  - EvangelicalDr. Hart is an Evangelical minister, he says so in the forward, there are entire sections of the book you can skip if you are not Christian (Depressed males in the bible, and was Jesus emotional), but there's better information than in "I don't want to talk about it". There's real tratment options and sypmtomology, things your doctor should be looking for. It doesn't quite make suggestions for what questions you should ask your therapist, or psychiatrist, (Depression Fallout DOES do that though!) Read More Rating:  - Not what I expectedI was very dissapointed with this read. The tone and diction for the book came across as overly religious, while the grammar is off-key and at times annoying(exclamation points come early and often). I never questioned the author's sincerity or background on the subject, but found myself putting it down after only a few short sessions. Rating: - Thank You Dr. HartI am a Christian. If you are not a Christian please, please buy this book and just ignore the "Christian" references. The research and conclusions are valid and helpful regardless of your particular faith (or lack of it!). I am not only a Christian but, more importantly for this review, I am a deparessed male who's symptoms did not match the traditional diagnostic characteristics of depression. This book points out why. Male depression generally presents different symptoms than female ... Read More Rating: - Male depression is REAL !This book deals with depression in an honest manner. It segments the differences between female and male depression and makes things obvious as to the differences It is a good investment !
