Many people with depression believe they are defective, unwanted, or inferior, and this feeling of being flawed and inadequate often leads to a strong sense of shame. Written by experienced clinicians, this workbook provides readers with practical, proven-effective skills based in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), so they can identify and alleviate shame-based, self-defeating beliefs, and learn to create a more fulfilling life.

Do you feel like you're broken? Are you depressed because you believe that you're somehow defective, unwanted, or
inferior? Do you feel self-conscious and insecure, constantly comparing yourself to others? Are you sensitive to criticism, or terrified of rejection?
Feeling flawed and inadequate often stems from negative childhood experiences. If you grew up in a highly critical
environment, you might feel unworthy of being loved, or have a deep sense of shame about your perceived defects. You
may tell yourself there is something inherently wrong with you that prevents you from forming satisfying relationships,
finding happiness, and succeeding in life. So, how can free yourself from the self-defeating beliefs that keep you trapped
in the depths of depression?
Grounded in evidence-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), this workbook will give you the tools to
identify and dismiss your core beliefs of personal defectiveness, and build a life based on positive choices and values that
bring vitality and a sense of personal fulfillment. You'll discover ways to develop psychological flexibility, freeing yourself
from old habits and unhealthy coping mechanisms, and alleviating symptoms of depression. Finally, you'll learn to see
yourself in all your wonderful complexity, with kindness and compassion.
The truth is you are not broken, and painful memories of the past do not have to dictate your future. If you're ready to
heal and treat yourself to the care and compassion you deserve, this book will show you how.
