The Rebbetzin’s Husband has an important post up called Talking to children about depression. He asks: “At what point should parents talk to their children about depression?”
I was pleased to read the other comments left on this post. It is a difficult and important topic, and I’m glad at least a few people feel comfortable discussing it.
If you have any comments or suggestions on this topic, please leave a comment, either on the Rebbetzin’s husband’s post or on this blog (or both). Thanks.
I have wanted to add something to this post since I first read it on Friday morning but I hoped other people would comment first.
I’l try to come back later with something more positive than what I have in mind just now.
It’s a difficult topic. Often, when someone has something to say, it feels too personal to say it.
Maybe try saying it in a story. Therapy Doc says she makes up patients for her posts.
