who do you talk to about depression?

A therapist, a co worker and a out patient group at a hospital are several people I currently speak to about depression. I use to talk to my boss and team lead but my contract was over , it was not renewable because I was no longer a student this I don't work there anymore

You can talk to a close friend, a family member, a listener on here, or also a therapist. All of these are people who you can talk to about depression.

A couple of family members growing up were incredibly helpful, several of my family have struggled with depression themselves, and I also has a couple professional counsellors that were great.

1) Talk to someone who you feel has direct control over being able to change your situation. If they do not immediately help you change your situation, they will be able to direct you to someone who can. 2) Talk to a friend who can comfort you. 3) Talk to somebody (anybody) who can listen to you. 4) Talk to a third-party. They will usually perform at least one of the following things: a. Counsel you b. Comfort you c. Advise you of something else you can do to get your mind off whatever is causing your depression d. Offer you an alternative solution to your problem(s) e. Offer you a renewed perspective to your problem(s) f. Speak some hard truth into you to help you deal with your perceived problem(s) - rare ocassions

Anyone you feel comfortable around and can trust. People such as close friends or family can be good, but if you want someone more seperated from you personally, counselors, teachers, or a family friend are good options.

I honestly talk to nobody i just write my feelings and thoughts down i dont like expressing myself to others

You can talk to anyone about depression! Everyone knows how it feels to be sad, and even your best friend could help you cope for the time being. You can also come to 7 Cups so we can help you with the depression and even go to a therapist for depression. You're not alone.

The ones you may feel more comfortable speaking to and those who would most likely be the most helpful are those who can help from experience as they understand what it's like to go through your situation. It may also be helpful to see a professional such as a counsellor who will be able to give you advice. If you're looking to just talk about your issues though, please consider speaking with a Listener. You can browse the many profiles and choose your own based on their profile information. :)

You can talk about this to a close friend, a member of your family you are comfortable with, or a therapist. And you can come on 7CupsofTea for support ! :)

A good friend, a supportive family member, your dog, it can be anyone really -- oh, and a trained professional of course. But sometimes the most helpful person to talk to is You, yourself. Look in a mirror and have that much-needed conversation, or get a nice journal and fill it with your thoughts and feelings. Peace, Devin
