A member asked:

Basically how is the mind conditioning is done for a depressed person by a physiatrist or a physiologist?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Therapy--depression: A person talks about the depression with the doctor, and then can learn skills to help deal with the feelings, and the situations that add to the depression. When new skills are practiced, new links are established in the brain, which helps a person to stay on a "new track", so to speak.
