Self-Management For Depression

While there is still a significant amount of research needed on depression, we believe that select lifestyle changes can predict better health outcomes for a variety of illnesses including depression.

This manual has been thoughtfully prepared with input from a number of professionals with varied backgrounds and educational degrees. What is shared among these disciplines is the knowledge that patients have choices related to their health and well-being. Some people, however make poor choices because they lack the correct information, some because they are not motivated and others because they don’t know how to go about making changes. This manual will help put you on the path to improved health, and to better management of your depression. As you will see the mind and body affect one another in multiple ways, and because of this there are many opportunities to participate actively in managing your health and well-being.
