Wednesday 26th August - 1.30pm-3pm - Helston Cattle Market.
Facilitators - Rhonda and Jade look forward to meeting you.

This week we are talking about:
What is functional depression?
Why it often goes unnoticed
Common symptoms
Hidden costs
What causes functional depression
Treatment options

Functional depression refers to a state where a person:
• Feels depressed internally — sadness, emptiness, exhaustion, numbness
• But appears fine externally — going to work, caring for family, meeting deadlines, keeping up with responsibilities
It’s a mismatch between how someone looks and how they feel. Cleveland Clinic notes that people may seem “reasonably well” while internally “hanging on by a thread.”

Good Morning,

Following on from our session last week in which PTSD was discussed we have decided to extend this session into this Week's topic. Our plan this week is the following;
To focus on coping strategies for PTSD to support one another on our healing journey. We will not be going into any detail of past experiences or details of our causes of PTSD, our aim is for our members to feel supported and listened to in a safe environment. Helston Cattle Market - 4th August 2026 at 1.30pm-3pm. 🙂
