coping skills for depression
| Wed, 01-21-2004 - 4:04pm |
I was wondering if you have some coping skills that you find helpful in dealing with your depression? I suffer from chronic severe pain and have been diagnosised with depression and stress anxiety. I have received some counseling. But, I also feel I should be doing more. Especially those days when my pain is extreme bad and I just cannot stand it. Thank you in advance.

Or I write in my journal if it is something that is really naging at me and writting it out usually helps me look at it from all angles rather than just one.

Relaxation tapes were what my Therapist recommended for me.

A woman named Belleruth Naparstek has done some wonderful guided meditation tapes, some of them for specific conditions and others for general relaxation.
