He is a recognized expert in overcoming depression and is passionate about each person's ability to recover and create a life full of joy and meaning.

Many sufferers of depression report that they experience intense feelings of hopelessness, loss of motivation, social withdrawal, suicidal thoughts, and negative feelings about the future. In this 2-hour talk Jeffrey Wilson will share about the nature of depression, the role that hope plays in recovery, and how to reclaim a life free from drugs and despair.

His expertise and wisdom is invaluable as he gently guides participants through, around and beyond depression. With wisdom and sensitivity, he will challenge popular approaches to treating depression and provide real solutions for real healing.

Afterwards each participant will understand:

- The true cause of and reason for depression

- The way to end your depression without drugs, willpower or behavior therapy

- The truth about the effectiveness of antidepressants

- The 4 crucial areas that you must address to achieve permanent healing

- Real-life tools for self-discovery and healing

- Skills for changing negative thought processes

- Alternative treatment options that work on depression

- What interferes with the natural process of healing

- Why the advice of well-meaning professionals and friends actually makes permanent freedom impossible to achieve

- Tools to overcome your most self-defeating mindset. Once you realize it, it’s like flipping a switch that will allow you to finally get free

- The Good News About depression! (Yes, there is good news)

Jeffrey Wilson suggests that participants get away from the quick-fix mentality of chemical solutions and start recognizing that the whole person must be healed. Focusing on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual causes of depression, he provides a model that helps participants recognize the true cause and cure of depression. His message is one of breaking self-defeating cycles, self-empowerment, and beating the odds.

Moving Beyond Depression will give those who struggle with depression and those who love them understanding and hope.

About Jeff:

Jeffrey Wilson is a survivor of 23 years of psychiatric drug treatment, a former pharmaceutical industry executive and author of "Irrational Medicine: The Antidepressant Crisis And How To Avoid Unnecessary Behavioral Drugs". The book exposes a medical model of treatment that is dangerous and out of control. It shows how doctors ignored various causes for his depression and prescribed drug after drug to "cure" him. Eventually the side effects of the drugs caused him to be diagnosed with ADD and Bipolar Disorder. He then discovered the truth about psychiatric drugs and found a way to get out of his pharmaceutical coma through alternative healing methods.

Jeffrey’s writing comes directly from personal experience and deep research. He has a street level knowledge that allows him to talk about depression and psychiatric drugs in a way that no doctor ever could. He has staffed numerous personal growth trainings, led integration groups and organized men’s study groups. He is also the recipient of The Ron Hering Mission of Service Award from The Mankind Project. But his most important credential is his work on recovering from depression and breaking free from antidepressants and other behavioral drugs.

Jeffrey is a recognized expert in overcoming depression and is passionate about each person's ability to recover and create a life full of joy and meaning.
