Mental Health Brief #10 - Dr. Noah Lazar

Ask for Help

 

 

Ask for Help – Talk to those close to you about what to look for at the beginning of a downward depression spiral

One way to help get out of a depressive spiral is to identify the early warning signs, and sometimes it’s easier for others to recognize these signs than it is for you to recognize them in yourself, especially in high-paced lifestyles. Telling other people what to look for when you start to feel depressed and how they might be able to help can be an important step in avoiding a downward spiral into a depressive state.
