Common struggles of depression immense difficulty with completing day to day activities including leaving the house, having a shower, getting off bed, and cooking a meal. Other common struggles include socializing, concentrating on things (i.e., conversations, work), getting pleasure out of something and connecting with the world (i.e., being attentive to someone else’s needs). Here are small (yet effective) ways to support a loved one! ... 1. Reach out and create a conversation. Remind them of a memory you have recalled. 2. Avoid telling them to seek help. Instead, research one for them, offer to help financially, or schedule the appointment for them. 3. Considering they struggle with doing everyday tasks, offer to pick up groceries for them or help clean up. 4. Experience togetherness virtually - watch a show together online or have a virtual dinner together. 5. Plan a future event together so they have something to look forward to. 6. Research depression on your own so you can familiarize yourself with this disorder and be as helpful as you can. . . . #mentalhealth #counsellingservices #wellness #mindfulliving #psychoeducationalassessment #calgarycounselling #calgarytherapy #yyc #calgary #childtherapy #depressionawareness #childmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthblogger #depressionrecovery #yycpsychologist #calgarypsychologist #psychologist #canadacounselling #depressionhelp #depressionselfcare #depressionsupport
