We all face depression from time to time, especially as we face loss of sight. </div><div class="">So, let's talk about how to deal with our depression and discuss ways we might even avoid depression. </div><div class="">There is no one way to deal with depression, we are all different. </div><div class="">As a social work student majoring in mental health some 30 years ago, we looked at depression and we learned as I said, there is no easy answer, no magic pill, it takes work. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">During our discussion we want to remember that we don't want to make each other depressed, rather we want to encourage everyone to fight depression in whatever way works best for that person. </div><div class="">I am thinking we have all faced depression and we all have suggestions for what has worked for us as individuals. I believe that if we share what has worked best for us, we may be able to help each other. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So, lets talk together, learn and share. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Also, please consider attending the Possibilities Fair for Seniors.</div><div class="">Register at <a href="http://nfbofpa.org" class="">nfbofpa.org</a> for only $20 </div><div class="">Date: 11/9/23 </div><div class="">Time: 9:30 - Noon </div><div class="">There will be a light continental breakfast, great speakers and a chance to meet others dealing with vision loss. </div><div class="">Hope to see you there. </div><div class="">Now, </div><div class="">Joining the meeting:</div><div class="">* I suggest you download Zoom to your device if you have not already done so. </div><div class="">* If you cannot download Zoom, please use one of the one touch phone numbers listed below.
