Psychological de-escalation of depression in the elderly is more difficult because the elderly tend to be very stubborn. At this point, psychological counseling can be replaced with reassurance or communication from family members to get the patient in a better mood, make sure they can take their medication, go for walks outside often, maintain some social contact, and get sunlight often. While psychological support for the elderly is important, taking medication is equally important. For children, they need to have psychological guidance for the patient, but they should not take the method of dry facts and reasoning, it is better to talk about specific things, or take the patient on trips or walks to spend some time with him, the patient will feel happy and have a warm feeling in his heart. The elderly are actually most afraid of loneliness, and even more afraid of loneliness after depression, so it is best for family members to be around.
