Learning the Language of Depression

An enlightening resource to overcome depression's "language barrier"

A "language barrier" often exists between people with depression and those around them, in the sense that many words, everyday expressions and non-verbal forms of communication can take on vastly different meanings than they otherwise would when they are coming from someone with depression. Chapter by chapter, Learning the Language of Depression: Overcoming Communication Barriers so People with Depression Are Safe and Understood breaks down this "language barrier", so that people with depression can be better understood, better supported, feel more connected to their loved ones, and be less at risk of attempting suicide.

Containing many perspective-shifting insights and practical, easy-to-implement strategies, Learning the Language of Depression is an essential read for all people with depression frustrated with their disconnect from the outside world, along with anyone seeking to better understand and support a loved one with depression.
