Getting through the Hard Days of Depression
Many times the patient is completely surprised and alarmed by this sudden drop in mood. Illinois therapist and writer Jacqueline Marshall gives suggestions on how to handle those really bad days as part of her article on PSYWEB.com.
Ms Marshall’s techniques can provide relief for many people. Her suggestions include relaxation, breathing, distraction, and seeking support from friends and family.
It is important to remember, however, there may be a time when you do not find relief from any of these methods. If you think you are in danger of hurting yourself, call 911 and ask for help.
