One man discovers a new hobby in his journey to recover from depression. In Wild Coin Hunting, Robert W. Griggs details his invention of a new sport, explaining how the rules of hunting “wild coins” also serve as practices to recover joy while living with depression. The result is a relatable narrative that balances humor with hard truths. Wild Coin Hunting dispenses with the well-worn tropes of self-help books, focusing instead on the return of pleasure and other recovery essentials.

Reviews

This wonderful book is a first person, intimate account of the experience of, and recovery from depression. Using stories of heartbreak and hope, you are led to an understanding of depression, the loss of self-identity that goes along with it, and the healing power of relationships. As a clinician, I will share it with clients as well families of clients to support understanding and hope to a time of perceived hopelessness. – Dr. Jeffrey D. Hamilton, LCSW, UCC Minister, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Director of Lancaster Pastoral Counseling and Education   Wild Coin Hunting: The Recovery of Joy while Living with Depression is an honest and difficult look at living with depression. Rev. Griggs shares how it negatively impacted his life and also how little things – like helping someone – and focusing on searching for coins inched him forward on the road to recovery. If you want to more fully understand depression and how to help others, read this book. – Sue Abderholden, MPH, Executive Director of NAMI Minnesota (National Alliance on Mental Illness)  Expand reviews
