  2. Don’t Tell Them They’re “Too Much To Handle” Individuals suffering from clinical depression feel like they’re a burden for everybody they meet, so all they really need is to be accepted, heard, and supported. No matter how strenuous it is to take care of somebody who is clinically depressed, try to camouflage the distress under a supportive smile and encourage depression therapy. Telling them they’re too much can push them off the edge. http://www.tanuchoksi.in/

  3. Don’t Tell Them They’re “Too Much To Handle” Depression can become a landscape for negativity. People suffering from depression do not deliberately choose to be negative, they just simply cannot access positivity due to their condition. However, if you want to encourage positive responses, ask them questions that have positive answers and emphasize the importance of that in their life. http://www.tanuchoksi.in/

  4. Combat Depression With Help And Medication Individuals suffering from depression are extremely cynical about therapy for they find it hard to trust others and adhere to routines. Help them see why therapy and medications will make their life better instead of their condition better. Making them more aware of their condition is imperative, but constantly reminding them of it can be overwhelming. http://www.tanuchoksi.in/

  5. Validate Their Feelings It can be incredibly frustrating for someone suffering depression to constantly be told that what they’re feeling isn’t real, isn’t correct or isn’t important. Rational thinking isn’t always the way to go, sometimes validating their irrational feelings might help too, since they feel like they’re supported and understood, and using their trust you can encourage them to see things more rationally. http://www.tanuchoksi.in/
