We have worked with depressed people and it is a serious matter.
Whether clinically depressed or just "in a temporary funk"..
The first thing you absolutely NEED to know is, You CAN get better.
It WILL take energy - and that is often in short supply in one who is
depressed.. but Nothing is Impossible - IF the individual is willing
to receive help and instruction. Some are "habituated" in a depressed
state and in these cases intervention from an outside source may be
the rational next step.

Post Partum Depression
When pregnancy occurs, the mother's endocrine (hormonal) system must ramp up to supply the new life form within her, as well as to provide her own physical body with additional hormones to handle the new burden with which it is coping. This "peaking up" is a gradual thing which takes several months, and therefore the harmonizing and balancing system has no trouble in keeping the hormones evenly and properly supplied as required.
At birth all this is changed in a matter of hours. The various endocrine glands must cease their abnormal production and retreat to the normal output for a single unencumbered body. The need for this sudden reversal comes as a shock to the entire system; the amazing thing is that most women adjust back to normal and overcome their depressed feelings in so short a time, usually not more than three or four days. Some do not, however, and therein lies a problem which frustrates the medical profession.

There are steps you can take to get better - One of which is to get moving. Sort of like riding a bicycle - it is very difficult to maintain your balance staying in one place, but as you move forward, the incremental actions you take because you must - to maintain your balance - that action also gets you past where you were - and that can be good.

Affirmations may be useful - NO, "You can't get there from here" - from depression to bliss in one move... - BUT you can move incrementally.
