BODY
Not everyone may have a holly, jolly Christmas this year. While the holidays
represent a time of joy for a great many people; the sights, sounds, memories and
occasional stresses of the season can cause or enhance feelings of depression,
anxiety and mental stress. Consumer information website secondopinion.org tackles
the issues of anxiety, depression and mental health during December with articles
and literature designed to jump start you or a loved one's important research
process.

"The featured books and authors on the website this month present real world answers
and understanding of the often difficult, inexplicable feelings of depression and
anxiety that seem to trend higher during the holidays," said Dr. Shawn R. Benzinger,
founder of secondopinion.org and noted Indianapolis physician. "It can be an
overwhelming time where we face tough memories or family situations, financial or
emotional stress, even addiction issues that affect our mental health and general
well being."

Video or audio reviews from Dr. Benzinger accompany this month's titles-chosen for
their easy readability and honest-yet comprehensive-treatment of a variety of
sensitive subjects. This month's titles include Psychology for Dummies, Addiction
and Recovery for Dummies, Anxiety and Depression Workbook for Dummies and more; and
also include two books that speak to the hot-button topics of Multiple Sclerosis and
Autism.

"The for Dummies series is the perfect gateway to understanding serious conditions
and mental health issues in easy-to-understand, non-threatening language," added Dr.
Benzinger. "The challenges of addiction, anxiety, depression, and psychological
aspects of life as well as those presented by neurological diseases like Autism and
MS are best handled with an open mind and honest information."

Each month, secondopinion.org seeks to truly inform consumers about special health
topics of the month, and offers a searchable archive containing previous month's
subjects, articles and interview content. For more information, visit
