This Isn't Depression
The Grief Nobody Taught You to Recognize
Coming Soon
Sometimes what looks like depression is actually grief that never had a name — and naming it is where healing begins.
About This Book
It's been years, and you're still waiting to "get over it." But the fog hasn't lifted, the sadness hasn't moved on, and somewhere along the way you learned to call what you're feeling something it might not be.
Pastor Nicole Washington understands that grief doesn't always show up wearing black — sometimes it looks like exhaustion, numbness, or the inability to care about things you once loved. This book dares to name the grief that nobody taught you to recognize, while proclaiming the hope that is never lost.
Naming it is where healing begins. And you don't have to name it alone.
"Naming it is where healing begins. And you don't have to name it alone."
— Nicole Washington, This Isn't Depression
