HealthyPlace.com Web interview with Julie A. Fast<\/span><\/h2>\n

Hello to everyone, I recently did an interview with Gary Koplin \u00a0founder of www.HealthyPlace.com<\/a>, the world’s top mental health informational site. Gary has always been a strong supporter of my work and I enjoy working with him to educate the public about bipolar disorder and depression as well as help those of us directly affected by mood disorders. Here is the newsletter Gary sent out to promote the event:<\/p>\n

Web TV: Managing Severe Depression with Julie A. Fast<\/p>\n

Watching this week’s HealthyPlace Mental Health TV Show<\/a> reminded me how debilitating Major Depression alone, or as part of Bipolar Disorder, can be. Many days, our guest, Julie Fast, wakes up crying and sometimes can’t seem to get out of bed.<\/p>\n

She’s extremely educated on the subjects of depression and bipolar disorder, so you would think she has an edge on most people living with depression and maybe it would be easier for her to cope. But that’s not the case, she says. Most every day, Julie has to use strategies she developed so she can get things done.<\/p>\n

One key point that really stood out – when asked about whether it was a matter of “accepting that you have depression,” Julie said it has little to do with acceptance. Instead, she stated that people with chronic depression have to force<\/span> themselves to do things. It’s not about saying “I have to think positive things,” you have to just do<\/span> things. And Julie says “it’s an all-day thing, but we work all day on our depression just to get to the days where we don’t have to.”<\/p>\n

Whether you are living with depression or bipolar disorder, or are a loved one of someone who is, watch this interview<\/a> for some really help suggestions and insights. Julie has real clarity around the illnesses of depression and bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Gary and the Healthy Place staff.<\/p>\n
