2 The Workbook Living with major depressive disorder (MDD) has its ups and downs. Following your doctor s treatment plan may help, but it can sometimes be hard to know if your treatment is working from one day to another. This MDD Wellness Workbook can be used daily to record your thoughts and feelings, as well as your wellness goals. It also includes a Patient Health Questionnaire and a Daily Tracker that you can routinely fill out and bring with you to your doctor s appointments. You can also turn to this Workbook in times of difficulty. It is designed to help you learn about yourself, what may help keep you well, and what may not. It may help you control your symptoms better and be of help when things get worse. This Workbook can help keep you focused on your wellness goals to help you get back to the people and things that are important to you. 2
3 Framing Major Depressive Disorder MDD and Reaching Your Wellness Goals... 4 Understanding Triggers... 5 Managing Your MDD... 6 Tips for Coping With a Bad Day... 7 Tracking Your Medicines... 8 Who to Call in Case of Emergency... 9 Patient Health Questionnaire...10 Daily Tracker...11 If your symptoms are getting worse, you should contact your doctor or other members of your treatment team right away. This is not a diagnostic tool. Only a health care professional can diagnose MDD. Always follow the health care advice of your doctor. Do not change the way you take your medication without talking to your doctor. If you ever have suicidal thoughts, call your doctor or 911, or go to the emergency department. Take suicidal thoughts seriously and get help immediately. 3
4 MDD and Reaching Your Wellness Goals Describe the things that were important to you (activities, hobbies, family events, etc) but that you no longer enjoy doing now that you have MDD. These are things I used to enjoy doing when I was well: Make a list of the wellness goals you want to achieve to get you back to the people and things that are important to you. For example, Wellness goal #1: Start exercising again by walking 15 to 20 minutes each day. Wellness goal #1: Wellness goal #2: Wellness goal #3: Wellness goal #4: 4
5 Understanding Triggers Framing Major Depressive Disorder Triggers are things that happen to us in our daily lives that may set off a chain reaction of uncomfortable or unhelpful behaviors, thoughts, or feelings. What are my triggers? How do I work through my triggers? What can I do to avoid or limit my exposure to things that trigger me? Early warning signs are small changes in the way you think, feel, or act that mean you may need to take action to avoid worsening symptoms. What are my early warning signs? What action can I take when I recognize the early warning signs? 5
6 Managing Your MDD Worsening symptoms may require reaching out to your doctor or another member of your treatment team to let them know how you re feeling. When my symptoms get worse, this is how I think and feel, and how I act: What can I do to reduce these difficult experiences and possibly keep things from getting worse? There may be people in your life who help you get through difficult times. Talk to your loved ones about the best way to help you. If I m having a difficult time, these are the things that help me feel more comfortable: Here is a list of things that I feel are NOT helpful and might make me feel worse: 6
7 Tips for Coping With a Bad Day Framing Major Depressive Disorder We all have good days and bad days. When a bad day comes along, keep in mind that there may be things you can do to make living with MDD more manageable, including: Educate yourself about MDD, join a local support group, or ask your doctor for more information about coping with MDD. The National Alliance on Mental Illness ( and the National Institute of Mental Health ( offer support group programs for people with MDD. Talk to your partner or spouse, or call a family member or friend. Take a walk or get a little exercise, which may produce positive mental and physical health benefi ts. Avoid using alcohol or other substances to try to make a bad day better. Spend time doing the things you enjoy. Keep track of your daily mood, as well as side effects from medicines, by using a journal. You can also search for depression apps on your smartphone to fi nd a variety of apps to help track your day-to-day MDD symptoms. Talk to your doctor if you have trouble coping with your MDD. 7
8 Tracking Your Medicines Share this medication list with your spouse, partner, caregiver, or loved one to help them support you in following your treatment plan. Take your medicine every day, at the same time, or exactly as your doctor ordered. Don t stop taking your medicine if you are feelling better. List each medication you are currently taking, why you are taking it, and who prescribed it. I am currently taking the following medications: Medication/dose 1: What it s for: Prescriber: Medication/dose 2: What it s for: Prescriber: Medication/dose 3: What it s for: Prescriber: Medication/dose 4: What it s for: Prescriber: Medication/dose 5: What it s for: Prescriber: 8

Call 911 for emergency services. Go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
