Tip of the Day

Get help.

Depression is not a weakness; it's a fact of life for some people. Some people are relentlessly cheerful, some are musically inclined, some athletic, and some prone to mood disorders and mental illness. If they are prone to allergies that’s not a weakness, so don't consider depression one, either!

Depression may be something you can effectively deal with on your own, but there is help available.

If you need help, seek it. When you are depressed finding help seems like an insurmountable problem. So talk to your medical doctor and a trusted friend or family member to get help finding help.

There IS help out there for you. Even if you think there is not. And you CAN find it.

Don't keep going it alone!
