Does anyone know of a specific therapy geared to aging causing depression in women?

Hi,

You need a little FACTUAL info on Depression, Maybe? Read on...

I've been in fairly hefty senior management positions for around 4 decades and have had up to 500 staff under me at times. I’ve had to deal frequently with many people suffering Depression, so know a little about what you are going through. Depression is far more common than most people think because most people either don't recognise it or hide it. In fact, I think the stats show that up to one-in-five people suffer from Depression, all over the world. It's good that you're getting it out in the open and seeking advice. Just be careful of the myths and here-say, though. A lot of people don’t know what they’re talking about and just seem to make things up as they go along.

Anyhow, to cut to the chase - Nowadays, I produce videos, and last year made a 35-minute DVD presented by a top UK Consultant Psychiatrist, Dr Darryl Britto, who is a personal friend of mine, and who wanted to squash all the myths about depression, because he felt that very few people thoroughly understood what it is all about. In the DVD he includes an explanation of the three main treatments available. It's purposely in simple layperson's language and aimed at 4 categories of people.

1) Those with Depression,

2) Those who think they may have Depression,

3) Friends and family of those with Depression, and

4) People training in the healthcare sector.

If interested, you can see a FREE PREVIEW on YouTube at http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce1viJ7zqCU

Also I’ve include some weblinks below which are of course FREE.

I sincerely hope this information might help you. You are not alone. Depression is treatable in the majority of cases and it's truly not as bad as you feel it is - you just need to know the FACTS and what Depression is all about, which then makes it ten times more easy to handle.

Good luck & Cheers

Hi there,

Try to talk to a Counselor or therapist,you will be able to explore your thoughts and feelings about yourself in a non-judgemental setting and receive supportive listening and great insight.

I recommend http://onlinecounsellingservice.co.uk,/ i am currently using the service and it is changing my life,my aunt who has somewhat of a similar issue to you is using the service too and she has been amazed at how she is slowly accepting herself more as well as making positive changes.

The Counseling Therapist is great,ask for Faith.

The good thing is that due to the rate of exchange against the dollar therapy sessions are like only $37 and it is a 24 online service so ,you can book sessions for a time convenient to you and you have the option to use instant chat,email,voice chat and even have your webcam viewed.

i hope that helps

Good luck

Several studies are showing that neither counseling or medication help. Just a few basic changes seems to help like:

Getting a good night's sleep (every night).

Get out into the sun daily.

Add some exercise, walking for example.

Eat better, not more, food.

Connect with a couple friends.

Hope you feel better.
