Today’s video will discuss 5 things not to say to someone with depression.
Sometimes when we find ourselves in a situation where someone is looking to us for support, we end up saying things more out of our own discomfort with the topic or situation vs. saying something that is actually helpful sometimes.
Take a quick listen to this video, for some common phrases or pieces of advice that I commonly hear being told to people who are suffering from depression. Hopefully this video will give you a different viewpoint on how these phrases might be interpreted if you were suffering from depression and on the receiving end of these comments.
The purpose of this video is not to make you anxious about every word or phrase choice when you’re trying to be there. Ultimately being there for someone, listening, being empathetic, and encouraging them to seek appropriate professional help are really the best things one can do.
Thank you for your support and encouragement as always.
