Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
great specific tip-- try to talk about others, ask abourt other's interests. dont talk about yourself too much. if they are a quality person, they will ask about you themselves.
and, i know its hard for us depressed people, but try to crack a joke, have a sense of humor around others.
and you might find friends in a brick and mortar depression support group in your area.
