The metal bed pillow can be a useful aid for people suffering from depression, a research paper by a team of Australian researchers says.
The paper, which has just been published in the journal of The Lancet Psychiatry, says the metal bed pillow can be helpful for patients who have depression because of a lack of social support, as well as for those who suffer from chronic pain.
“There are many different treatments available for depression,” said Dr Joanna Laidlaw, one of the paper’s authors.
“For example, some people may have a mild form of depression which is associated with a general lack of interest in life and a lack to do activities that require effort, or people with anxiety disorders may have depression and anxiety disorders and need help to manage their symptoms.”
The main way of helping someone with depression is by providing them with a variety of activities that they enjoy.
“The paper’s co-author, Dr Jody Smith, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Sydney, said the pillow could be useful for people who have experienced depression, who may be experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety or loss of interest.”
They might not be able to use a bed for all their symptoms,” she said.”
In a way, the pillow is a bridge between their depression and their symptoms.
“Dr Smith said the research team had found a way to get around a lot of issues that can make it difficult for people with depression to engage with their loved ones.”
When you talk to them about the fact that they might be struggling with their depressive symptoms, they are able to talk about the other things that they are doing, like doing a lot with their friends or hobbies, which they enjoy,” she told AAP.”
And that can help them understand how to talk to their friends and their colleagues about their depression.
“The researchers looked at data from over 1,000 people with chronic pain, and found that people who had experienced depression were more likely to be prescribed the pill than people who did not have depression.”
You also need to remember that people are different and some people are better at taking the pill because of the depression, so it doesn’t mean that everyone who is depressed is going to be better off.””
If you are depressed and your partner has a history of depression, then you may feel more inclined to give antidepressants.”
You also need to remember that people are different and some people are better at taking the pill because of the depression, so it doesn’t mean that everyone who is depressed is going to be better off.
“But for people that have been depressed for a long time, antidepressants can be really helpful in helping them to get back to a normal life.”
The study looked at the effect of two types of antidepressants, fluoxetine and venlafaxine, and showed that the pill could help alleviate the symptoms of depression.
Dr Smith says that people with a history a depressive disorder are more inclined than those without a history to be treated with antidepressants.
The researchers hope to use their findings to develop better treatments for people in the future.
