For Caregivers of Depression Patients

continued

This is just as important as anything else! You offer nothing to someone else if you're stressed out. If you need to, take some time away from the depressed person. It will give you a better perspective on things and unravel frustrations and tensions. Just make sure that your friend or relative knows that you're still committed to him or her, anyway. You can even tell him/her that you're taking "time out" for yourself, so you can better help. (It's true.)

If you are a caregiver of a depressed person and you have some insights or helpful tips for others, please post them on our depression bulletin board.
