Disease management protocols for Depression.

For Depression here are the clinical management protocols.
1) Strict adherence to medication and management protocols
2) Conflict resolution and management on a daily basis
3) Positive self care (don't do nothing, don't do everything, just do something)
4) Daily must do something in all of these five categories:
A. Mental = think & process, read a book
B. Physical = excersize even if its only 15 minute walk
C. Social = people contact, call someone, go to a mall, visit a friend
D. Emotional = communicate your feelings
E. Spiritual = pray, read bible, meditate on word,
5) Disputing irrational thoughts
