I have a son w/severe depression. This Jordan Peterson video is enlightening
The graphic at 3:54 and the 5 minutes after that really resonated with me, especially the part about constraining negative events to the minimum necessary domain.

Anyway, as a parent trying to understand and support and help my son there where a lot of things here that made sense to me;
