About this listen

As The Depression Project hears every single day from members of their social media community, a "language barrier" often exists between people with depression and those around them—many words, everyday expressions, and non-verbal forms of communication can take on a different meaning than they otherwise would when they are coming from someone who has depression.

Consequently, in order to overcome this "language barrier" and therefore help people with depression feel safe, understood, supported and much better as a result. This book will:

  • Explain what people with depression say other commonly spoken phrases that are often misunderstood by people who have never experienced depression themselves before.
  • Share a wide variety of suggestions to help make it easier for people with depression to put what they are going through into words.
  • Highlight the language people with depression often use that can indicate they are feeling suicidal.

Learning the Language of Depression is an ideal book for people with depression who would like some help communicating, as well as friends and family of someone with depression who would like to better understand their loved one.
