My 65 year old mother has recently been diagnosed with depression. I want so badly to help her, I just don't know how. I will definitely be trying to get her into a forum on this site, however she is not easily convinced. Is there a forum for people like me to get answers or help?

Hey there. I'm really sorry to hear that -- trying to help someone with depression is always hard, but thank you for being so compassionate and thoughtful! Perhaps you could try our depression subcommunity, or check out these links -- one, two, three, four, five, and six.

I noticed it's been a year since you posted this, though, and I'm sorry you didn't get a reply sooner. How are you? How is your mother? I hope you both are doing well, and all the best to the both of you!
