Q: In the U.S., you can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or 800-SUICIDE (800-784-2433). If you suspect your loved one has depression, take stock of his behavior to get a sense of his level of depression. Make a list of the symptoms that you notice. Frequent, prolonged, and/or seemingly unprovoked sadness Lost interest or pleasure in things that were once enjoyed Significant loss of appetite and/or weight Overeating and/or weight gain Disrupted sleep patterns (either unable to sleep or sleeping too much) Fatigue and/or loss of energy Increased agitation or decreased movement noticeable by others Feelings of worthlessness and/or excessive guilt Difficulty concentrating or feeling uncertain Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide, attempting suicide or having a plan for suicide These symptoms may last for 2 weeks or more. They may stop and come back again. These are called "recurrent episodes." In this case, the symptoms are more than just a "bad day." They are a severe change in mood that affects the way someone functions in everyday life. If your friend has had a death in the family or another traumatic event, she may exhibit depressive symptoms and not be clinically depressed. Once you have recognized that your loved one is suffering from depression, you should be honest and have an open conversation with that person. If your loved one won't admit that there is a serious problem at hand, he will have a hard time getting better. Or you can talk to another close, trustable friend or relative about the person facing depression. They might handle these things better. Depression is a medical condition that can be diagnosed by a doctor. It also can be treatable. Reassure your loved one that the depression they're feeling is real. Make it clear that you are worried about your friend. Don't let her brush it off by saying she's just having "a bad month." If your friend tries to change the subject, steer the conversation back to her emotional state but if she/he gets aggressive (openly hesitates to talk) about it drop the subject. Find another appropriate time to talk about this. Remember that your loved one is suffering from an emotional problem and is in a very vulnerable state. Though it's important to be firm, don't come off too strong in the beginning. Don't start by saying, "You're depressed. How are we going to deal with it?" Instead, start off with: "I've noticed that you've been pretty down lately. What do you think has been going on?" Be patient. It takes a while for a person to open up sometimes, so give it as much time as they need. Just try not to let him blow off the conversation. You probably want to help your friend as much as you can. But there's no simple way to "fix" depression. You can encourage her to get help, and you can be there for her. Ultimately, however, it's up to your friend to want to get better. Once your friend recognizes that he is depressed, you can talk about ways to start addressing it. Does he want to talk to a counselor? Does he want to see a doctor about a prescription treatment? Is there any aspect of his life that's beating him down? Is he dissatisfied with his life or lifestyle?
A: Get help immediately if your friend is considering suicide. If this person is considering suicide, please seek help immediately by calling 911 or taking him to the nearest emergency room. Watch for symptoms. Have a conversation with your loved one about their depression. Explain that depression is a clinical disorder. Be firm. Don't be confrontational. Know that you can't "fix" the depression. Discuss the next steps.

Article: Fill the blender carafe halfway with warm water. Then, add a few drops of liquid dish detergent. Blend on a low setting for about a minute until the carafe is thoroughly sudsy. Then, pour out the soapy mixture and rinse until clean. Make sure that the lid is secure! If the lid comes off, then you'll get soapy water everywhere! After you clean the inside of the carafe, leave the jug upside-down on a drying rack. At the very least, wait to put the lid back onto the blender jug until the inside is completely dry. A moist interior can lead to condensation and provide an environment for bacterial growth.

Q: Stay hydrated throughout the day to help flush out lactic acid from your body. Dehydration can also add soreness to your muscles and make it more painful for you. Put a lemon in your water to help reduce lactic buildup. Avoid drinking anything that's sugary or caffeinated. Some coaches will recommend eating 20 grams of protein between 30-60 minutes after a workout. Dig into a cup of Greek yogurt with whey protein mixed in. Or, drink a shake made with chia seeds, flaxseed, and oats. The amino acid leucine found within whey proteins helps your muscles to change protein into fuel. Potassium can help to reduce muscle soreness and cramping. You can get your potassium from your diet by eating fruits or vegetables, such as bananas or kiwis. Or, you can talk with your doctor about taking a daily supplement or multivitamin. Winter squash and potatoes are other good food sources of potassium. A foam roller is exactly what it sounds like, a small tube-shaped piece of foam. Sit on an exercise mat on the floor and position the roller to 1 side of your sore muscles. Apply gentle pressure as you roll the foam over your muscles. Repeat this rolling motion until you feel your muscles begin to release. In some cases you can actually use your bodyweight to apply pressure. For example, if your back thighs are sore, place the roller on the mat. Then, sit on the mat with your thigh directly on top of the roller. Place your hands on the mat and use them to move your thigh in a rocking motion on the roller. Foam rollers are available online or at most fitness stores. But, if you don't have one, you can roll a tennis ball over your muscles. Pour 1 to 2 cups (180 to 360 grams) of the salt into a full tub.. A 30-minute salt bath can help reduce inflammation and flush toxins from your body. Purchase Epsom salt at your local drug store. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen, can lower your feeling of soreness, but they do not fix the underlying problem. If you take medication, use only the recommended dosage. If you find yourself dealing with muscle soreness on a regular basis, reach out to your doctor for advice.
A:
Drink 8 glasses of water every day. Eat a whey protein snack 30-60 minutes after exerting yourself. Intake at least 1,600 mg of potassium each day. Apply a foam roller to your sore muscles for 5-10 minutes. Soak in a tub with Epsom salt. Take over-the-counter pain medications sparingly.
