Plan

Listening to other peers going through similar situations like the ones the person is experiencing, it helps in validating the individual’s experiences hence boosting self-esteem (Caplan, Doss, Plioplys & Jones, 2017).

-Educate them on adopting lifestyle changes to minimize and avoid depression. For example, engaging in regular physical exercises. It not only increases a person’s serotine and endorphins but also triggers the effective growth of the person’s brain cells

-Encourage them to adopt other depression treatments such as relaxation techniques and acupuncture. The relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation boost a person’s feeling of joy thereby reducing stress which often results in depression (Suchday et al., 2014).

-Advise them on using vitamins and supplements in the case that the depression is brought about by nutrition deficiency.

2. – conducting mass education through training and seminars on the causes, effects, and control of the depression

-Providing free therapy sessions in hospitals to help manage the situation and its early development stages

-Publishing as well as making media adverts on the importance of physical and mental health brought about by managing depression. Through this, the new population gets encouraged on adopting the practices that help control minimize or do away with depression

B. -Legalizing the need for mental education to get taught in both junior level schools and institutions of higher learning

-Sponsoring of free therapy sessions- it will encourage attendance among the affected.

C. The plan would help reduce the cases of depression which is most common among women. Given its friendly approach to addressing depression, most individuals will find it interesting to understand the various ways of managing depression. Implementing strategies such as free therapy sessions will help them share their experiences with others hence receiving encouragements from one another. It will help boost their self-esteem in the long run.
