This will be the last one on depression for now! The plan is, I'll do 10 comics for each disorder, and then finish them with a few questions that people might wonder about that disorder!
I'll be taking a two week break after this one - my plans for the next disorder have run into some issues that potentially affect the validity of the project... FlareyWorks will still be live, but Sad Brains will resume in October!
I think it's really worth saying that the best thing you can do if you're supporting a person with depression is to look after yourself. You can become depressed as well if you look after someone else's needs instead of your own. The best thing to do is make sure you can be consistent and patient with them and support them because you care, and not because you expect them to get better. One of the best ways to help is to learn to live with the depression, that way you're not making the person feel bad that they can't get rid of it.
