Young adults and depression?


I was wondering if there are any other websites similar to craigslist.org where I can post an ad to try and get a support group together in my area for young adults with depression, anxiety, etc.

Thank you!

We all feel sad and low from time to time. This is normal. In a normal day people can go through a range of emotions. Having low feelings and depressive thoughts for a long time is different however. Sometimes people can suffer from 'clinical' depression, which means the depression has symptoms that indicate that the feelings of being 'down' are not just due to something going wrong in the person's life. It is more than those normal feelings of sadness.

Different people describe depression differently, and it may not feel exactly the same for any two people
How you manage depression depends on the type of depression and how bad it is. Some of the following things can be very helpful:

Talk to a friend or person you trust.
Counselling could help you understand the reason for depression and sort out practical problems - you could talk to your doctor or a counsellor at your local school or community health centre. Check out the topic Counselling.
Some studies suggest that what you eat affects your mood. A good balanced diet will make sure you have all the essential nutrients needed for your brain to function well. Check out Healthy eating to learn more.
Exercise. Studies have shown that after only 30 minutes of exercise people get a boost of good feelings. 30 minutes of moderate exercise 3 times a week is what you should aim for. Check out our topic Exercise for some ideas.
Try to relax more. Relaxation exercises are a good way to reduce stress,

Jess check out this website, it saved my life. www.theophosticprayer.com Churches are practicing this everywhere and even going down to Costa Rica. See if you can email Ed smith He is a councelor and teacher
