About this title

Synopsis

When someone suffers from depression friends and family members naturally want to help - but too often their good intentions come out all wrong. This practical compassionate guide helps readers understand exactly what their loved one is going through and why certain approaches help and others have the potential to do damage. TALKING TO DEPRESSION offers specific advice on what to do and what not to do - and what to say and what not to say - to avoid frustration and give the kind of caring effective support that will make a difference.
