CFSS is coming in Minnesota!
As Minnesotans brace themselves for another cold winter, you may begin to experience symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). This typically occurs around the same time of year, when our exposure to Vitamin C and physical activity becomes limited, and we spend the majority of our day indoors. Though a common disorder that usually lasts for only a season, SAD may also be an early sign of depression.
If you’re providing homecare services to a loved in need of support, it’s important that you understand and recognize early symptoms of depression to ensure they don’t cause other serious health issues down the road.
Whether you’re providing homecare to an elderly parent or adult child, be aware of the following indicators of depression.
An essential part of providing the best homecare services possible is being alert to your loved one’s needs. To learn more about caregiving for a loved one living with depression, there are many resources available to help you better understand the condition and help your family find the right support to improve their mental health and wellness.
