Dear brothers,

We are asking you for help inwith a certain matter. The case concerns brother XXXX. He has been struggling with depression for many years. The main cause of his depression is a trauma he experienced in childhood. Depression has been diagnosed by a doctor. Deep depression prevents him from performing everyday activities, such as regularly going to work, and regular field service. He has not participated in field service for a long time. Often with the help of his wife, he manages to go to work. He is a window cleaner. Social gatherings are not a big problem for him. He likes being among the brothers. He is a nice, well-read, and intelligent brother. He regularly attends meetings and sometimes takes part in them.

Over the past few years, he has been trying to use other methods of treatment. Suchsuch as EMDR therapy and others. We would like to note that he is only looking for natural ways of treatment. He received a shepherd's call several times. We suggested that he use a doctor's help and consider antidepressant pills. He doesn't want to do this because he's afraid of the side effects. He's a supporter of natural medicine.
