Overcoming Mood Swings by Jan Scott

Most people know what it is like to experience high or low spirits. For some individuals, however, emotional extremes can seriously disrupt their lives, either because they happen too frequently or because the mood swings are intense and are accompanied by other symptoms of depression or mania. This book is a self-help manual for those who have experienced mood swings and gives background information on depression and mania. The author uses tried and tested practical techniques that will help people identify and manage their mood more effectively, and achieve a more stable emotional state. Contains a complete self-help programme and monitoring sheets.

Cognitive behavioural techniques are, in my opinion, the most effective form of psychological therapy for emotional disorders Dr James Le Fanu, GP, Medical columnist for The Daily Telegraph This is an excellent self-help bookIt is clear, user-friendly, encouraging and non-condescending. I would recommend my patients to read this book. Dominic Lam, Institute of Psychiatry, London, British Journal of Clinical Psychology
