Demos Health Library Donation Program

In this tough economy, libraries have taken a big hit. Budgets have been cut and librarians havebeen forced to make difficult decisions on how to spend their resources. Unfortunately, fictionbooks will always be purchased, while health titles that inform and educate are the first to beslashed from the budget.

For many years, Demos has partnered with local chapters to remedy this problem through ourlibrary donation program. Here is how it works:

1. You contact the local library who will receive your donation

2. You place an order for any of our Multiple Sclerosis disease titles at a *50% discount

3. Demos ships the books directly to the library

It’s that simple. With your help libraries will continue to offer people with MS the resources theyneed to educate and empower themselves.

If you would like to place an order, or need additional information, please contact Reina Santanaat [email protected], or call at 863-427-4848.

It’s Not All in Your HeadAnxiety, Depression, Moods Swings and MSPatricia Farrell, PhD

One of the greatest challenges people facewhen dealing with an unpredictable diseasesuch as Multiple Sclerosis is learning to over-come the psychological burden of not know-ing what each day will bring.

According to WEBMD,symptoms of depression severe enough towarrant medical intervention affect up to halfof all people living with MS.

It's Not All in Your Head is a cognitive-behavioral approach to overcoming the de-pression, anxiety, and stress that goeshand-in-hand with MS. Dr. Farrell helps in-dividuals and their families develop a betterunderstanding of the effects that MS has onmood levels and anxiety and offers a plan ofsimple remediation in a self-help format.
