some tips

hey there all, ive been living with my partner of nearly 10 years, who has major depression. a councellor once mentioned to me that its a good idea not lose sight of the things that i enjoy doing ie crafts walking on the beach, listening to music , catching up with friends etc ect. it can be hard at times, we want to help them come out of it, but the chances of that are pretty slim, so we have to care from a distance, and not get caught up in there depression, because thats when we start getting depressed ourslves. even if this only helps one person, i will be happy with that. have a great day namaste xx
