I really enjoyed the reading. I think that helping the man transition to a new type of farming gave hope and appealed to him being able to be productive in his environment. This definitely works when the depression isn’t biomedical in nature. Even if a person has a chemical condition creating depression, thinking outside of the box can often still give some relief with medication. Being compassionate enough to listen, ask questions and attempt to find the practical ways to help is beneficial.
MaryAnn, I am always so in admiration of and grateful for your courage to do the deep diving into complicated and treacherous subjects. I'm thinking back to your group chat regarding allostasis and your new book's exploration into the theory of normal. Gabor Mate is brilliant and I love his take on all this. Really looking forward to future discussions and the snippets. Thanks, MaryAnn.
