your teenager<\/a>\u00a0(see our dedicated site for this), a romantic partner, a family member or friend. The situation is even worse when you don\u2019t know what to do to help them get better.<\/p>\nSadly, most people don\u2019t.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not your fault. No one trains us how to deal with this type of crisis. And if you\u2019ve never personally experienced depression it\u2019s close to impossible to understand what they\u2019re going through.<\/p>\n
If you have had depression yourself, even that doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re equipped to support them. Every person struggles with depression in different ways. It\u2019s a unique disorder where every case is different. One of the things you\u2019ll learn here is that there are varying degrees of depression.<\/p>\n
Which means, treatments differ too.<\/p>\n
