Depression Stories and Advice

Wherever we go during our 30-city book tour everyone can relate to the topic of optimism and depression. They are depressed, or have been. Their mother, child, cousin or brother-in-law has some form of the illness. Their stories form a series of depression snapshots from around the country, a sort of emotional State of the Nation.

We share some of their issues and our suggestions. Read our Stories from the Frontline of Depression

Depression Information

Did you know that the fastest-growing market for antidepressants is pre-schoolers? That the rate of increase of depression among children is an astounding 23% p.a.? Or that 54% of people believe that depression is a personal weakness? (If you're depressed it's important to remember that your depression is not your fault. Luckily we can help you overcome it!)

Here's an update on the latest Depression Facts and Statistics, including information about what really causes depression and what promotes healing.
