Getting help isn't beyond you! If you're feeling depressed, don't bottle it up. Find someone to talk to. If you are worried about someone you know, - Look for the signs of depression
- Listen to your friend without judging them,
- Take the time to talk about what's going on, and get help together.
Getting help is important, and is now more accessible. From November 1 2006, you can get psychological help, with the cost mostly covered by Medicare. Your GP can give you a referral and talk to you about a treatment plan. You can have up to 12 visits a year with a psychologist, social worker or occupational therapist (up to 18 in exceptional circumstances), and 12 more for visits for group sessions..
