This book by Clotilde Margotén powerfully and dramatically reflects contemporary concerns and discussions about mental health and psychiatry that occupy our society.

Mental health disorders, especially mood disorders, affect all age groups, from children to the elderly, and certainly do not exclude young women of reproductive age. Depression is one of the proofs of the fragility of the human condition. There have been times when no one really dared to talk about it. Yet, none of us are alone. Others have suffered or are suffering from similar illnesses or difficulties.

Because the forms of depression are diverse, they create a complex mosaic. It has even afflicted Saints. When we accept our weakness and embrace it, we will have a new, stronger encounter with Christ. For Christ did not come to dissolve our doubts with an explanation, but to cover our very need for explanations with His presence.

And as Claudel beautifully said: "The Son of God did not come to eliminate pain, but to suffer with us. He did not come to destroy the Cross, but to stretch out upon it." Therefore, this testimony by Clotilde Margotén, courageous, clear, vibrant, will be able to help many wounded hearts discern the infinite mercy of Christ.
