From Publishers Weekly
Occasional negative moods (as opposed to major clinical depression) should not be cause for alarm, according to clinical psychologist Braiker. Her upbeat guide, couched in psychological jargon, is addressed in particular to women who attempt to excel in every sphere. She offers a drugless "Triple A" program to help head off, shorten or alleviate emotional mood swings often due to fatigue, stress and hormonal variations. If frequent and severe enough, she warns, such swings may result in feelings of low self-esteem, irritability and guilt; they can cause overeating, drinking, uncontrolled crying and can adversely affect physical health, along with personal and professional relationships. The program uses examples, questionnaires, daily mood rating forms and diaries to help women to discern the physical and/or mental causes and to reverse negative moods through exercise, social and other activities. First serial to McCall's and Working Mother; Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club alternates .

From Library Journal
Braiker presents a simple three-step method for overcoming "the blues"the low self-esteem, fatigue, guilt, lack of energy, and irritability that occasionally affects every woman. She argues that most cases of mild depression can be helped by applying her Triple A Program: Accept, Attribute, Act. Accept that you are feeling depressed; attribute your feeling to its causes but do not dwell on them; act in ways that will restore a positive mood. A series of questionnaires helps readers determine the nature of their depression and whether or not they need professional consultation. This compassionate book, illustrated with case histories, asures readers that they are not alone and provides the tools to overcome mild depression. Jodith Janes, Univ. Hospitals of Cleveland
