Depression occurs in about 1 in 10 people and is highly treatable. Unfortunately, most people with depression do not seek the professional help they need -- often because they don't know the symptoms, think depression will go away on its own, or are embarrassed to talk about how they're feeling. Sponsored by the National Mental Health Association, this website gives a basic overview of what depression looks like, its causes, and treatments. It contains a depression questionnaire that takes two minutes to complete and has links to other resources.
