How to Help Someone with Depression!!

1) Remind the person about taking medication or keeping therapy appointments.
2)If you believe your loved one is suicidal, call his or her doctor or therapist. Mental health professionals can’t divulge information about a patient without permission, but it is not a violation of confidentiality for them to listen to you.
3)Your patience and love can make a huge difference. Ask questions and listen carefully to the answers. Try not to brush off or judge the other person’s feelings, but do offer hope. Suggest activities that you can do together, and keep in mind that it takes time to get better.
4) irritability or anger, which is often directed toward family and other loved ones. Remind yourself that a disease is causing your loved one to act differently or perhaps be difficult. Do not blame him or her, just like you wouldn’t if it were chronic physical pain that caused the person to change in certain ways.
5) Being a caregiver is a difficult job. You may want to seek individual therapy or join a support group.
