Specializes in Psychiatry

Injury & depression: Sorry about your injury. It this prevents you from activities you previously enjoyed, you could well feel depressed not doing those. Recovery from a broken arm takes several weeks/months, so you'll need to take good care of yourself during that time. Seek out friends and activities you can do; eat a whole foods diet; visualize healing. Tell your doctor you're depressed. Treatment is possible.
