Understanding Depression - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The effects and consequences of depressive illness are as serious as those of physical illness, disability, and injury, sometimes more so. Do you know somebody who is suffering? Would you like to help them, but don't know how? This booklet might provide some of the answers. It does not set out to offer treatment or a cure - that is a matter for the Medical Profession. What it does offer is help and support for those who, in their turn, are helping and supporting the sufferer. The simple techniques described are neither unique nor exclusive, but have been developed over many years of experience as a Family Doctor, during which time they have been found to be an effective adjunct to professional care. This booklet has also been used as a training aid for new recruits of the local branch of 'The Samaritans.'
