Book help?

[NAB3]

Just talked to MIL. She says when I say things about depression she doesn't say anything as she doesn't have the answer. Taking yesterday's article with Melinda Messenger as I think some things she said may explain it better.

Is there a book or something that I could get her to try and help her understand?

Going over there now. She is having the older two until Friday for me.

going out shopping today, so any ideas?

sorry NAB3 I don't have any answers, I think I would prob google it, or go onto Amazon's search to find something. I love the halloween smileys tho so I might have to use one

Thanks anyway.

Hey

I don't know if it's still useful, but MIND do booklets giving lots of information and advice for friends and relatives. The link is here:

www.mind.org.uk/Information/Booklets/Understanding/Understanding+depression.htm

h ttp://www.mind.org.uk/Information/Booklets/Understanding/Understanding+mental+illness.htm

They have loads of booklets on various leaflets.

Also an organisation like Depression Alliance might have information for friends and families.

I know your MIL is not your carer, but searching for information for carers might also get some information.

Hope this is helpful.
