These books have SAVED me from Depression

I am writing this blog, thinking there can be several others who may be experiencing stress and anxiety during this pandemic situation. I believe books are the best friend of humanity. Books can never deceit anyone. Honestly speaking, whenever I feel low, I pick up my favourite books from the motivational genre and start reading it. It helps me a lot to come out of the negative thoughts. Hence sharing with you all the list of books which can help in boosting positive thoughts. Hope this article will help.

Negative thoughts, anxiety, depression can happen to anyone irrespective of age and gender. However, adults suffer from negative thoughts more and suffer from it a lot. Feeling blue can be the result of any of the reasons - relationship breakup, unsettled career, non-progressive environment, etc. In these kinds of environments, it becomes really difficult to express our feelings and thoughts. Therefore, in this type of situation, when nobody is there to listen to you, to help you and to guide you, consider a book as your saviour.


“Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.”– Charles W. Eliot

Here is the list of books worth reading to feel motivated when you are sad and depressed.
