Overview

Depression: The Way In. The Way Out. is a quiet, first-person account of living through depression and gradually finding a way to remain present inside it. Written without instruction, diagnosis, or promise of cure, the book unfolds as a sequence of short reflections that trace how depression forms, deepens, loosens, and reshapes perception over time. Rather than offering techniques or solutions, it stays close to lived experience, describing inner weight, emotional flattening, self-protection, collapse, and the slow re-emergence of clarity with careful restraint. This revised edition expands and reorganises the work into a continuous narrative arc, accompanied by minimal symbolic imagery. The emphasis is on observation rather than explanation, allowing readers to recognise their own inner landscapes without being told what to believe or how to recover. This book is not a medical guide. It does not replace professional care. It is written for readers who want language for what depression can feel like from the inside, and who value honesty, slowness, and precision over advice or reassurance.
