QUESTION: My wife has been severely depressed
for nearly three months. What kind of treatment or
therapy would you recommend for her?
DR DOBSON: Get her to a physician, perhaps
an i. ternist, as soon as possible 1 his kind of pro-
longed depression can have serious medical and psy-
chological consequences, yet it is usually very respon-
sive to treatment. Anti depressant drugs are effective
in controlling most cases of depression. She could also
be entering menopause and may need estrogen-
replacement therapy or some other hormone treat-

avoid ridicule and to feel like a woman Those are
excellent reasons I think you should buy her a bra
