Ferocious For Joy: Win the Battle of Depression Through Fighting it With Joy

Why is this Ferocious For Joy? And not “How to become more joyful - 7 steps to go from Blah Blah to Rah-Rah.” Or “How to Get Over Depression - Somewhere Over The Rainbow.”

Joy has been sold as fairy floss or if you are really lucky a yummy dessert. To most joy reminds them of “Tigger" in Winnie The Pooh. Joy has been given a bad rap in terms of narrowing the expression and meaning of Joy. If you are depressed the last thing, you are wanting is to be bouncy and overly excitable for no apparent reason.

The most common statement in counselling for those that are suffering depression is:

“I just want to be happy.”
