Sharing Your Happiness
Thank you for joining the RoseMeade Center for a timely, yet sensitive discussion. Often when it seems as if things are going well for us, an unexpected event can occur and life ends up changing forever. As a victim of violent acts, a person may indeed require the help of others. A fact often unheeded is that victims need inspiration and proof that their unhappiness, which has been caused by trauma and/or abuse will end. The month of April was proclaimed Sexual Assault Month. During this time, a number of rape-survivors joined together to promote awareness of this horrid violation. Sometimes, simply being amongst the company of others that have gone through a similar experience can allow a person to feel the healing and happiness of those that have indeed survived the trauma of sexual assault… hope comes in all sorts of packages.

Silent Slashing
RoseMeade's Wellness Nook this month takes a look at two patients described as having experienced depression to a degree that harming themselves became the allusive false remedy. What we will be examining here is whether therapy/medication treatment may or may not be the best way to approach this illness or whether a treatment center may be a better place for them to be placed. Read and see if what you learn here can help you decide to either get some help for yourself, or someone you may know who needs help with depression.
