My sister has just been diagnosed with depression. Apparently its chemical so the medication will replace those brain chemicals she is missing...But, does that mean there is nothing I can do to help?
Any suggestion? I don't want to be 'pushy', if you know what I mean...

hi fernanda,
A few tips that I've learned in dealing with depressive episodes I have are:
1) Nurture relationships with supportive people
2) Eat a healthy diet
3) Exercise
4) Challenge the status quo
It's always good to be a listening ear to those dealing with depression.
