Depression can make life hard to live. Depression mercilessly throws your life out of balance and disable you to enjoy your life any more. No age group can escape from the effects of depressive symptoms. Even most aged people.

Depression is not easy for people to find out. As most people are unaware of depressive illness symptoms and hence seek medical health very late in their life. Such is case with older people as well, they find out when they have arrived in later stages of their life. In such condition they first want to completely deny it but late feel fear and embarrassment from society.

Older people do suffer from depression. Depression is not limited to any age group or gender. It has today being suffered by many individual ranging from very young to senior citizen. Even higher government official have said to beginning suffered from depression.

Let me provide you strategies that will aid in helping to reduce problems arising from depression.


1) Depression though is very complicated issue to deal, but older people need to develop method to keep medical illness separate while identifying issue of depression.

2) Some medical diseases such as Parkinson can exacerbate depressive illness in a person. Other statistics show that people who had suffered heart attack, cancer are more likely to suffer from depression too.

3) Maintain a viable relationship with your doctor. You need to communicate and well with your doctor, as this will help clear any confusion arising in the patient. And render doctor to understand problem of illness and help cure patient better.

4) Refrain from taking alcohol as it can worsen things for you. Generally when people find themselves lonely or suffering chronic pain tends to use alcohol.

Alcohol is a depressant in nature and hence it will make any level of depression increase many fold. Avoid using alcohol when you are using any drugs and their combination can be dangerous.

5) Carry out regular exercise. Exercise is a powerful tool in beating depression. I can improve health and mood of sufferer by just doing simple routine exercises. People, who are not used to doing exercise, need to encourage themselves. To get benefits of exercise, they need to make themselves strong willed.

Statistics display that 33% of senior citizen in America fall at least once per year. Reducing depression can reduce number of falls that in turn will contribute to one's over all well being.

Whenever senior citizen fall they are made fun of and older people get very embarrassed in such situation. By taking good care of their health by doing regular work out can help them avoid such bad moments.

Any exercise that can strengthen bones and other parts of the body is important to participate in such program. Other forms of balance enhancing techniques can also help develop core strength.
