Depression is one of the leading mental disorders in any age group, but among the elderly it is often viewed as a normal part of aging. But it's not. Depression at any age requires attention and treatment.
For sufferers and their families and caregivers, this go-to guide introduces readers to depression among the aging and elderly. It looks at both sufferers who've been diagnosed in their younger years as well as those with a new diagnosis, and reviews the symptoms, the diagnostic process, treatment options including alternative and holistic approaches, and long term care for those experiencing mild, moderate, or severe depression.
With real stories throughout, Depression in Later Life illustrates the many forms depression can take, and Serani offers a compassionate voice alongside practical advice for sufferers, caregivers, and families. Thoroughly researched with extensive resources makes this a go to read for anyone living with depression in later life or anyone who cares for someone suffering.
