14 Ways to Help a Loved One Struggling with Depression
themighty.com
"These are the most helpful things people have done for or said to me when I felt suicidal."Did you know that October is National Depression Education & Awareness Month? We've compiled the most recent data we could find related to depression for Mid Shore youth and young adults.* The Maryland average of high schoolers reporting symptoms of depression is 32% - Talbot, QA and Caroline were slightly lower than the average, while Dorchester and Kent were higher. The male/female rates also follow much of the rest Maryland. What we noticed is that over the last three years, the rates in all five counties are trending up. With the number of youth struggling with depression today, it is likely your teenager or young adult has been affected in some way, whether personally, or through a friend or peer. It's important to start the conversation about depression (and mental health in general), with the young people in your life.
Want to talk to your loved one but aren't sure how? Here's an article to help get you started: polaristeen.com/articles/talking-to-your-teen-about-depression/
