[quote=Anonymous]Aww, I am so sorry that your friend is suffering like this. A huge side effect of being severely depressed is most certainly a lack of bathing + grooming…even something as basic as brushing one’s teeth every day can feel like drudgery. 💔 Perhaps you can encourage her to speak w/her M.D. about her current medication - - she sounds like she needs her meds readjusted or maybe an add-on antidepressant is warranted. As for bathing > it may be tough for her to maintain a clean regimen when she is feeling so low, but if she has nice, luxurious scented bath items it may make her actually look forward to hopping in the bathtub. Perhaps some scented & moisturizing bubble bath/shower gel/bath salts/body scrub/body lotion/etc. She may also enjoy a scented candle to accompany her baths. Hope this helps….. You are a wonderful gem of a friend OP! :)[/quote]
