Help for the depressed

You have probably come to this section on DepNet because you think that you may be suffering from depression. Maybe it is the first time that you are feeling like this or perhaps it has happened before. Or perhaps you feel that you have become very down without any particular reason or it may be that something bad has happened to you, causing you to be unhappy.

No matter what the reason is, we have gathered a lot of advice, suggestions and information in this section of DepNet about the help which will benefit you.

Also, be aware that just getting information about the disease and becoming familiar with it can be a great step towards feeling better. The disease then doesn't seem so frightening and unknown, and it can help you to make some decisions along the way. We therefore also encourage you to read the section Knowledge of depression.
