Telling a friend



What would you like to tell a trusted friend about your depression? Consider whether there are thoughts or feelings that you’ve never shared before, and write them to a judgemental imaginary friend. Be sure to include your opinions and ideas (what you think) and your emotions and moods (what you feel) surrounding your symptoms and any related issues.

Afterwards, reflect upon how this writing felt – did it offer any relief or comfort? Did it trigger any new ideas about your depression? Did it suggest anyone who you may want to confide in, in the future?
