I originally bought it in 1990. It was somewhat helpful. A different doctor told me to get it about 2 years ago and when I told him I already had it he told me to read it again. I did but told him that the "mindfulness" training I got in 2010 was more helpful. Routine exercise is always helpful for everyone so stick with it.
