Tommy Tighe publishes book on depression

Tommy Tighe has released a new book titled "I'm Depressed – Now What?: St. Dymphna's Guide to Building Your Depression Playbook" to help Catholics manage clinical depression and depressive episodes. Published by Ave Maria Press, the 160-page book examines the science and psychology of depression through a Catholic lens.

Tighe, a licensed marriage and family therapist and Catholic father, previously authored a book and hosted a podcast titled "St. Dymphna's Playbook" to discuss mental illness. This new work builds on those efforts by providing a deeper look at the experience of depression. The book draws on the patronage of St. Dymphna, the patron saint of those experiencing mental illness and psychological distress.
