Even though depression is a very treatable disease, millions of people suffer day after day from feelings of sadness and hopelessness-- like they're just surviving life, instead of enjoying it.
In fact, as many as 1 out of every 5 people deals with serious depression at least once.
So having depression is pretty common.
But ... unfortunately ... many people don't get the help they need-- either through counseling ... or medicine ... or both.
So if you're concerned about your mood, tell your doctor or counselor.
And know that there is help and hope for depression.
