Thanks :) Through your book I felt you were the first and only Christian Doctor who actually understood what I was going through. For years I was self-medicating my depression and anxiety and my behavior was really self-destructive. When I became a Christian things just got worse because I was told that as a Christian I should not start to take medication for my depression, and all the time my depression and anxiety grew worse and worse. For long time I blamed myself for not being able to snap out of depression. I used to think that I must be a really bad person because God does not heal me. And I still get nasty comments and they hurt, but today I know better. I am sharing your book with others. :) I am praying for your practice. Your work is so important!!! I am so proud of you Doctor Mullen! May God richly bless you and your family. Laura Your book Emotionally free has helped me so much!!

I was one of those Christians who suffered with anxiety and depression and exhausted myself trying to hide my illness from other Christians, because of the associated shame. In our churches today, there are so many lost souls hiding behind masks in their church communities for fear that they will be 'discovered'. There is a belief in many chruches that emotional illness is a sign of spiritual weakness. And no Christian wants to be labeled as spiritually weak! This book so clearly negates that belief. Emotional freedom is only found by understanding and accepting the fact that emotional well being is comprised of three factors: body, mind, and spirit. Thank you, Grant and Kathy, for providing me with the tools, through this very helpful book, to help so many other hurting people in this world.

Anyone with a slight interest in the topic will really benefit from this book. It is all the better for being written by a qualified doctor who shares his own story also. It was fascinating to begin to understand the medical side of mental health and the book certainly de bunks myths about mental health stigmas. “Emotionally Free” is refreshing read which includes background to mental illness and how to get better , embracing a holistic approach through body , mind and spirit.

Myself I can relate to at least one thing in each chapter and much more in others and has very eye opening information and is very hard to put down. I have suffered from depression, anxiety and much more since I was a teenager and for many many years have been on a horrific rollercoaster. Suicide was in my thoughts and even though I knew God would not approve I still tried a few times and by the grace of God he kept me here because he obviously had other plans in mind for me than the ones I had for myself and this book for me to read was one of them. I thank the Lord for people like Dr Mullen that God has so blessed, to have given him the knowledge and the experiance that the Lord enable him to share these things with others. We need the Lord in our lives and/or with proper medications for those who need it and people like Dr Mullen. Blessed healings to all who seek. Get the book!!

This book gives me hope that emotional issues can be resolved by the one who came to heal our broken hearts and is an indispensable tool for anyone seeking emotional wellness. It confirms what I have read elsewhere. Thank you Dr. Mullen for authoring such an excellent book.
