Living with the Black Dog
How to Cope When Your Partner Is Depressed
Caroline Carr
Caroline’s husband became clinically depressed several years ago. She couldn't find the support she needed quickly enough, so decided to write a book as a resource for people in a similar situation to herself, so that they could get the information they need in one easy-to-read volume. The book contains information about depression and what to expect if your partner is depressed, and there are lots of tips and strategies about how to cope and keep yourself positive and healthy. Many people contributed and their stories are included, so that you can see that you are not alone. Caroline also has a useful website which is updated regularly. You can share your experiences of living with someone who is depressed on that too, at
