I know some folks that use essential oils for depression and overall balancing of mood quite successfully. I haven't tried that personally, but I hear it works well. You could easily get a diffuser and try that. For me, I've had some dark days, but so far seem to pop out of it after a few days. I did recently start to see a therapist since I have some illnesses in my family and some other things going on that I know are only going to get worse over time...I want to build myself up and learn coping strategies before things get bad so that the stress doesn't cause a major MS flare. It sounds like from your question that you are seeking help for someone else? As a coach I can tell you that @A MyMSTeam Member is exactly right: we can't help others unless they want to make the change themselves. That said, we can still try to influence them to make a different choice. Good luck to you! We're here to support! And great resource from @A MyMSTeam Member!! XX
Does he see a counselor or get antidepressants.
I think more than 50 percent of people with Ms they say have depression. There's nothing you can do.except prayer .. He has to help himself
