how to do handle clinical depression?


Question:


Answers:
The first thing would be to not self-diagnose. There is a wide range of normal sadness that is not clinical depression. Clinical depression is best left as a medical diagnosis usually tied in with a chemical imbalance, not as a catch-all for all kinds of sadness.

That said, I've talked myself into the corner of having to say that you'll need someone with special expertise to help you if it truly is clinical depression.

If it is not, if it is a dissatisfaction, sadness or grieving with a legitimate external cause, then the help needed may be a job counselor, grief counselor, pastor or peer group. You're not Robinson Crusoe on a desert island and you don't need to lift yourself by your own bootstraps.

Study the words of the Serenity Prayer. Don't get hung up on the reference to God. It's not about God, it's about me. It's about you!

"God, grant me serenity
.to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
.and Wisdom to know the difference.

With this reminder, I can examine each event and state of mind with reference to serenity, acceptance, courage, changeability, and enough good sense to decide between them.
