Help a person suffering from depression in this way
Mental depression or mental disorder is not an incurable disease. It is possible to treat it. A depressed person can live a good and happy life. Although drugs and treatment are the main tools to cure depression, but it is also very important to know what your role can be as a career.
When you meet or talk to a person who is going through mental depression, then how to talk to him, what to ask about his mental health and how to ask so that the dialogue seems to be an ease and comfortable in the dialogue. Some common and important things have been told for him.
Dr. AK Kumar in Psychiatry Department at District Hospital in Ghaziabad Has told about this. According to Dr. Kumar, some questions and talks must be done to a person suffering from depression.
1 Help the victim from depression and ask him the problem
Asking for help is considered a taboo of failure in the society, which is not correct. But on the contrary, reaching someone and asking them how we can help you, it can free from the fear of becoming a burden of some kind of burden on the person who helps.
2 Don’t think too much or do not say things like being strong
Such things may seem positive, but the person struggling with mental troubles may feel that you are not taking their situation seriously. Instead say, can I help something? Or let’s talk to a professional together.
3 Listen to patience and sympathy
If a person wants to share his mind, then listen to them without interrupting, carefully and with condolences. Avoid advising or comparing in between. Sometimes words like “I am understanding” or “I am with you” are very helpful.
4 I am feeling lonely. How are you feeling? Talk like this
Sometimes asking someone directly to someone and hope that the person in front will tell you his mind or answer your questions, it is a bit difficult. Instead, it is helpful to lead things by telling you about your mental and emotional health. It builds faith, security and stagnation and tells the front that they can feel safe with you.
5 Encourage them to seek professional help
If you feel that the situation is serious or remains for a long time, encourage them to meet a counselor or mental health expert. If you want, you can also support you to take an appointment or go with them.
Do get help from experts
Dr. Kumar says that many times a person suffering from mental disorder becomes a victim of loneliness. Messing them, calling, or going to meet them makes them realize that they are not alone. Regularly checking the health of your loved ones can lead to a long way to help them feel less lonely, but if you know someone who is going through a difficult time, it helps in taking professional help.
