Depression (December 2007)
Feeling down, sad or low is something we all experience at different stages of our lives. These feelings are normal if felt occasionally and are the body’s retreat response to a loss or change. But if they persist or occur too regularly, they may indicate the onset of depression. Recognising the signs is the first step towards getting the help you need.

Change (December 2007)
How we perceive change will determine how it affects us. If we fear change, then when it happens it is likely to worry or upset us. But if we see change as offering us a different set of options, then it can become exciting and new. Perceiving change in this way allows us to accept it, assess what is within our control and begin to positively manage the new situation.

Stress (December 2007)
Some types of stress are a natural component of modern living. But when stress goes beyond a certain level it can adversely affect our daily lives without us quite realising what is happening. That’s why it’s important to be able to identify the symptoms, in order to deal with stress in a positive way.
