3 Things You Should Never Say To Someone Struggling With Depression


Source: Jacob Wackerhausen

Depression is a common but serious mental health condition that affects how a person feels, thinks, and functions in everyday life. It’s more than just feeling sad or going through a tough time. Depression is persistent and can deeply interfere with a person’s ability to work, connect with others, and take care of themselves.

According to Mental Health America, major depression is one of the most common mental illnesses, affecting over 8% of American adults each year, which translates to more than 21 million people. It also impacts 15% of youth ages 12–17, or about 3.7 million adolescents. Symptoms can include sadness, a feeling of emptiness, a loss of interest in daily pleasures, or even worse, suicidal thoughts. 

The good news is that depression is treatable. With the right support—whether therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, or a combination—recovery is absolutely possible, but it takes a village to help someone get out of a depressive bout. 

Here’s what you shouldn’t say to someone fighting depression. 

window.addEventListener( 'load', function() { setTimeout( function() { !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','//connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js'); fbq('init', '187138648481959'); fbq('track', "PageView"); }, 2800 ); } );
