Sharon Wu organized very interesting and deep understanding about the depression, a topic where people do not want to talk, but a better understanding of this topic makes us more prepare when we are in going through a bad moment.
After the participates joined in the table topic, she explained with a ppt her knowledge and understanding of the topic. This idea, make the Table topic very fruitful for the participants and the public, because we could have a extra information from a person who has made research in this topic.

During the table topic, Emily gave suggestions about how to go through depression.
-Running: She runs 10-15 km/week. This helps her to think about her life.
-Reading book in phycology let her have a better understanding of the mindfulness.

April reminded us that professional help is very important, because they are the most prepare people to help you. She mentioned that anyone who need help can ask Eric, who is phycologist for a very long time.

“You have saved my life” those were the words that of her friends said to her the last year. Her friend was going through a tough time, and Joan asker her to travel and hang out. Her friend started to feel better after those events.
Joan’s story tell us that going out to dinner, hanging out or a small chit chat can help a friend who is going through a bad moment.
