Understanding Depression (Part 2 of 2)
Manage episode 401811148 series 99721
Hope exists. Depression is not a life sentence. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Kathy Knochel and Ted Witzig Jr. chart the course for walking through depression to the other side.
Show notes:
There are different kinds of depression. Treatments can vary. However, the path through depression typically has three benchmarks. The first is changing behavior. The second is a shift in thinking. The third is an improved mood.
1. Behavior activation:
· Physical activity: moving the body.
· Social interaction: engaging with people.
· Meaningful activities: engage in small, doable things in a consistent manner to develop a sense of competency.
2. Engage thinking through counseling:
· Challenge negative self-talk through healthy truth based in Scripture.
· Medicine (in some cases) can be beneficial in helping the mind think well and engage the therapeutic treatment.
3. Positive mood shifts follow improved thinking.
