Do not treat depression as a joke.<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Exercise and eat healthy to maintain a balanced lifestyle<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Avoid use of drugs and alcohol. They don\u2019t ease the pain, they make it worse.<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Listen to understand, not just to respond<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n- \n
If your friend\/colleague shows signs of depression, please help him\/her.<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Visit a counsellor if the problem is persistent. Remember, depression CAN be cured.<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIf you or someone you know is in need of help, feel free to call us at \u00a0+91 98202 57739 \/ +91 982057 6682. <\/span><\/p>\nFor those who are uncomfortable with the idea of seeing a counsellor, we provide counselling services over Skype calls and NO portion of your conversation will be revealed to anyone.
