10-Week Depression Recovery Program at Hope Church

More than 19 million people in the U.S. suffer from depression annually and during stressful times, this disease can intensify. Many factors can lead to depression including unrealistic goals, added financial stress, family expectations, and change of schedule or eating patterns. But the cure may not be as difficult as you might think.

Actually, just a few basic lifestyle changes can help you break free of the trap of depression.

Neil Nedley, M.D. has put together his 10-week Depression Recovery Program from his 20 plus years of research and clinical experience helping his patients. Dr. C., Christian Counselor of www.DearDrC.com, will be hosting the Nedley Depression Recovery Program on DVD.

The program begins Monday January 20, 2014. Day and evening classes will be offered. It will help you identify the underlying causes, or “hits,” which bring on depression. “Every case is as different as each individual, but the 10 Hit Categories summarize all the possible causes for depression. And determining your causes can be as simple as taking the depression questionnaire in this program,” said Nedley.
