Social groups can help ease depression

Researchers have suggested that building a strong connection to a social group helps clinically depressed patients recover and helps prevent relapse.

For the paper, (CIFAR) Senior Fellow Alexander Haslam, lead author Tegan Cruwys and their colleagues at the University of Queensland conducted two studies of patients diagnosed with depression or anxiety. The patients either joined a community group with activities such as sewing, yoga, sports and art, or partook in group therapy at a psychiatric hospital.

In both cases, patients responding to survey questions who did not identify strongly with the social group had about a 50% likelihood of continued depression a month later.

But of those who developed a stronger connection to the group and who came to see its members as 'us' rather than 'them,' less than a third still met the criteria for clinical depression after that time. Many patients said the group made them feel supported because everyone was "in it together."

While past research has looked at the importance of social connections for preventing and treating depression, Haslam, a member of CIFAR's Social Interactions, Identity and Well-Being (SIIWB) program, says it has tended to emphasize interpersonal relationships rather than the importance of a sense of group identity.

This paper is in press at the Journal of Affective Disorders.

Some Ways To Overcome Pain

Although pain is generally viewed as something negative, when seen through a prism of faith, it carries much deeper and complex meaning. It allows the sufferer to gain greater compassion, grow in strength and courage, and, ultimately, experience the joy of God’s ultimate love. Here are seven ways to find that joy in pain.

When the sensation of pain makes us feel older than our years, when life seems endlessly harsh, joy is present in things we might never have seen or imagined. A newborn baby, a just-opened flower, a day punctuated by self-discovery and hidden treasure – these and other examples of life’s ever-unfolding newness are all around us, inviting us to enjoy them and find joy in them.

The colours of pain might be the destructive red of searing loss, the inky black of an unknown future, or the lifeless grey of loneliness. It is hard to find comfort in them, but other colours can take their place. The bright gold of time with a good friend, the subtle pink of allowing yourself to rest, or the vibrant green of new hope found in advocating for yourself – all these and more can bring vitality and strength to your journey.

Inside of us, pain can hit hard and keep us down. But outside, there is much to uplift us. Music, nature, art, literature, journalism– these activities,or any other hobby that you've,  whether you do them or experience them, can provide counterbalance to the sadness and feeling of helplessness inside and inspire your spirit beyond them to find joy.

Unable to feel whole or of value? There is nothing like becoming someone else’s hero to revive your sense of worth. A day at an animal shelter, time spent with someone who is ill, an unexpected email to someone you know needs encouragement – no good gesture is too small to make a difference to the world and that, in turn, comes back to you in the form of fulfilment and joy.

The medications, the doctor’s visits, the therapy, the waiting, the sleepless nights – life with pain can get very complicated and crowd out simpler, more positive moments. Find a simple, still corner in your day, a place and time where you can appreciate life as the gift that it is. Then, from this place of simplicity, bring your renewed spirit into the other, more challenging parts of your world.

DON"T LOSE YOUR CHILDHOOD INNOCENCE- Even children who are seriously ill have a way of finding delight, laughing, and playing. When we reach adulthood, we do not abandon our childhood innocence and trust, but we might not acknowledge its presence when pain interferes. Invite whimsy, play, and humour into your life and let it rekindle your inner child – and the joy that resides in your heart.
