Recommended by my doctor!
Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness This was recommended by my doctor! Not because I am suffering from any of these problems, but it simply has lots of good information, suggestions, observations about the relationship between our physical brain and our mental health. It would be excellent for someone with no background for this topic as it is easy to understand and enjoyable to read. A "condensed version" to use as a "reminder" reference would actually be more helpful for me.
A new approach with similar solutions

I highly recommend Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness. It will help you understand yourself and the people around you so much better.
