Beating the Blues® has been through independent randomised control trials.
The results of these trials, published in the British Journal of Psychiatry1, demonstrate that Beating the Blues® is an effective
treatment for depression and anxiety, and is better than GP treatment as usual.
Patients using Beating the Blues® benefit from 30 additional depression
free-days in the 6 months after treatment2.
Patient satisfaction has been demonstrated in an open study when nine out of ten
patients would recommend Beating the Blues® to others and over half found the
programme better than other treatments they had previously received.
